Former Greater Accra Regional Minister, Daniel Nii Kwartei Titus-Glover, has called on the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) to avoid imposing excessively high bail conditions on suspects.

Speaking on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem morning show, he also cautioned the public to exercise vigilance when purchasing items, particularly cars, to ensure they are not stolen.

Titus-Glover emphasized that while EOCO must fulfill its mandate, bail conditions should not feel like a form of punishment.

“If the person cannot meet the standards, it becomes more like prison. For instance, in Shatta’s case, people had to demonstrate before his bail was reviewed,” he explained.

Dancehall artiste Shatta Wale was recently released from EOCO custody after nearly two days of detention over a luxury vehicle purchase. His initial bail of GH¢10 million was later reduced to GH¢5 million with two sureties.
