A High Court in Ghana has ordered the freezing of five bank accounts and four properties belonging to Dennis Miracles Aboagye, the former head of the Inter-Ministerial Committee on Constitutional, Electoral and Legal Issues (IMCCoD). The order was approved on Monday, August 3, 2026, according to reports from Graphic Online.
The court action follows an application by Ghana's Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO), which is investigating Aboagye in connection with an alleged fraud involving 55 million Ghanaian cedis. Graphic Online reports that the asset freeze is part of that ongoing probe, though no formal charges have been detailed in the available reporting.
Aboagye's frozen assets include five separate bank accounts and four properties, all of which are now under court-ordered restriction. The decision was confirmed by multiple outlets, including CitiNewsroom.com and 3news.com, which also noted the former IMCCoD boss's role in the matter. Modern Ghana added that the High Court explicitly approved the EOCO order, signaling judicial backing for the investigative body's request.
The development marks a significant escalation in the fraud investigation, which Yen News described as a probe that "ends in tears" for Aboagye. The exact nature of the alleged fraud and the timeline of the investigation remain unclear from the available reports.
Observers will be watching for any formal charges or further court proceedings in the coming weeks, as EOCO continues its examination of the case.
