\"Mildred <\/a>Mildred Donkor is testifying in the Adu-Boahene case<\/p>\n

Mildred Donkor, the third prosecution witness, who was initially arrested, detained, bailed and arraigned as an accused person but later withdrawn by the Attorney General to testify for the state, has told the Accra High Court that GH\u00a27.2 million traced to BNC Communications Bureau Limited transactions was reflected in a bank account described as the National Security \u201cCoordinator\u2019s Account\u201d.<\/p>\n

Mildred Donkor, also a former Director of Advantage Solutions Limited (ASL), made the disclosure on Thursday, May 14, 2026, during cross-examination by defence counsel Samuel Atta Akyea at Criminal Court 3, Special Court 1.<\/p>\n

Her testimony formed part of evidence led on a series of email instructions, bank transfers and SWIFT messages linked to payments to ISC Holdings International Security Consultants Ltd for the supply of a cyber defence system to National Security.<\/p>\n

She confirmed that she had sent multiple email instructions to UMB Bank for transfers from BNC accounts, noting that Exhibits K, L, M, N and P tendered in court represented only part of the communications with the bank.<\/p>\n

Donkor also acknowledged additional emails beyond those already tendered as evidence. The court admitted into evidence a disputed February 5, 2020 email after the judge ruled it relevant to the payment trail under examination.<\/p>\n

She further confirmed that ISC Holdings was the beneficiary of a $150,000 transfer captured in Exhibit 19, and that SWIFT records (Exhibit 20) showed payments for the \u201cProcurement of Cyber-defence system\u201d under Invoice NSC006.<\/p>\n

Donkor said she could not independently compute the exchange rate used for a larger $1,000,750 transaction (about GH\u00a29.53 million), noting that the bank executed the conversion.<\/p>\n

She also confirmed that a GH\u00a27.25 million transfer from BNC accounts to the first accused person was reflected in bank records, with subsequent entries showing GH\u00a27.2 million movements captured in a Fidelity Bank account described as the National Security \u201cCoordinator\u2019s Account\u201d.<\/p>\n

The presiding judge cautioned that conclusions would be drawn at the close of the prosecution\u2019s case. He stated that the full evidential assessment would be made at the close of the prosecution\u2019s case.<\/p>\n

The case has been adjourned to Wednesday, 20th May, 2026 at 10:30am, with additional hearings scheduled between May 25 and May 28, 2026, at the Accra High Court.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mildred Donkor is testifying in the Adu-Boahene case Mildred Donkor, the third prosecution witness, who was initially arrested,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":202286,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[79],"class_list":{"0":"post-235721","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ghana","8":"tag-ghana"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@africa\/116578037708608720","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/235721","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=235721"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/235721\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/202286"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=235721"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=235721"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=235721"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
