There’s a new development to the back and forth tug of war between legislator, Kennedy Agyapong and renowned investigative journalist, Anas Aremeyaw Anas.
The maverick political posited that Anas is a corrupt journalist who has no moral right to go round probing other people.
He therefore came up with his on exposé dubbed, Who Watches The Watchman to detail the dirty schemes of Anas.
Ghanaians however expressed disgust about the exposé, saying it was ’empty’ and lacked substance.
Indeed people looked forward to a reply from Anas to clarify some of the salient points the Who Watches the Watchman sought to portray.
Thus Anas released the statement below:
STATEMENT BY TIGER EYE PI
On the 27th of June 2018, a purported documentary titled “Who Watches the Watchman” was screened public. The documentary concluded that Tiger Eye PI paid Seventy-five thousand dollars ($75,000) to the Former Director General of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service, COP Frank Adu-Poku.
We wish to state as follows:
1. That the five-minute portion included in the video was a pre-trial conference, in other words, a meeting between Tiger and a State Attorney in respect of a $1.9m gold scam case.
2. The aggrieved company had engaged Tiger Eye PI to track and help arrest the fraudsters.
3. In that meeting, Tiger was narrating to the State prosecutor what two of the fraudsters involved in the scam had told Tiger Eye.
4. It cannot be said that Tiger Eye PI paid COP Frank Adu-Poku (retired) $75, 000. The narration of what the fraudsters told Tiger Eye PI in respect of their activities cannot be interpreted to mean Tiger Eye paid the retired police officer any money.
6. The video is a cut and patched up work which does not tell the story the makers of the documentary sought to force on it.7. The docket on the case is still available at the Attorney General’s Department for verification.
