The Office of the Attorney General has identified about 30 cases under the Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) initiative that are considered ready for prosecution with between five and 10 cases already at advanced stages before the courts, Deputy Attorney General and Minister for Justice, Dr Justice Srem-Sai, has disclosed.

Speaking on TV3's “Hot Issues” on Sunday, July 27, 2026, Dr Srem-Sai said the prosecutable cases were selected after investigators completed a comprehensive review of ORAL dockets submitted to the Attorney General's Office.

According to him, several of the cases have already been filed and are progressing steadily through the courts while another batch will be initiated before the commencement of the new legal year in October.

“When we analysed the report, I think we had about 30 cases that we thought were prosecutable,” he said.

Dr Srem-Sai explained that the Attorney General's Office would continue filing new ORAL-related cases during the legal vacation, stressing that prosecutions would proceed wherever the available evidence meets the required legal threshold.

He noted that decisions to prosecute are guided strictly by the strength of the evidence rather than the public profile of suspects or the level of public interest surrounding a case.

Although he declined to reveal the identities of those who may be prosecuted next, the Deputy Attorney General hinted that more high-profile cases are on the way.

“There will be some interesting cases coming soon,” he stated.

Touching on the ongoing SkyTrain trial, Dr Srem-Sai disclosed that the prosecution had closed its case and was awaiting the next phase of proceedings after the accused persons failed to file their witness statements within the timeline set by the court.

“SkyTrain, we have closed our case... We are going back to court tomorrow,” he said.

He also provided an update on the case involving former National Signals Bureau Director-General, Kwabena Adu-Boahene, indicating that the prosecution was nearing the end of its case.

According to him, the prosecution's fourth witness remains on the stand and is expected to conclude testimony within the week or the following week, after which the prosecution will formally close its case.

On the report submitted by former Environment Minister Professor Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng on illegal mining, Dr Srem-Sai said the Attorney General's Office has received investigative reports but has directed investigators to conduct further enquiries before deciding whether prosecutions should commence.

He explained that investigators are routinely instructed to address gaps in evidence before the Attorney General forms a final opinion on whether a case is strong enough to proceed to court.

The latest update follows an announcement by Attorney General and Minister for Justice Dr Dominic Ayine in February 2026 that his office was reviewing 16 ORAL dockets with additional investigations to be conducted where necessary before any prosecution decisions were made.

Dr Ayine also stated at the time that no plea bargain negotiations had been entered into with individuals implicated in the ORAL investigations.
