Agents from the National Investigation Bureau (NIB), The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) and Defense Intelligence identified former Deputy Chief of Staff under the John Mahama administration Dr. Valerie Sawyer and NDC MP for Buem Kofi Adams as possible collaborators.
Investigators at NIB detained some of the accused persons and showed them pictures of Kofi Adams, Dr. Valerie Sawyer and ACP Dr. Benjamin Agordzor to identify.
