National Security Ministry denies involvement in alleged kidnapping of Emirates Airlines manager

The Ministry of National Security has strongly refuted claims that its officers were involved in the alleged abduction of Sylvia Baah, Emirates Airlines manager at Kotoka International Airport.

This response follows a report by The Herald Newspaper alleging that personnel from the Ministry of National Security and the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) were implicated in the incident.

In an official statement, the Ministry categorically denied the allegations, stating, “The Ministry of National Security has noted with concern a publication by The Herald Newspaper alleging the abduction of one Sylvia Baah, manager of Emirates Airlines at the Kotoka International Airport, by officers of the Ministry of National Security and the National Intelligence Bureau. The Ministry wishes to categorically state that no officer from the Ministry or the National Intelligence Bureau was involved in the alleged abduction of Sylvia Baah.”

The Ministry has assured the public that it has launched investigations to determine the facts surrounding the alleged kidnapping. It further emphasized that anyone found culpable will face the full rigours of the law.

“The public is, therefore, urged to treat the allegation by The Herald Newspaper with the contempt it deserves,” the Ministry added, dismissing the report as baseless.

The Ministry’s statement sought to reassure citizens of its commitment to upholding the law and ensuring the safety and security of all individuals within Ghana’s borders.
