Former Chief Executive Officer of the National Food and Buffer Stock Company Limited (NAFCO), Hanan Abdul-Wahab Aludiba, and his wife, Faiza Seidu Wuni, have pleaded not guilty to a revised 20-count charge sheet filed against them at the High Court in Accra.
The pleas were entered after state prosecutors presented an amended charge sheet before the court as part of ongoing proceedings in the case.
Both accused persons denied all allegations after the revised charges were read in court.
Following the hearing, the High Court granted bail to the former NAFCO boss and his wife under separate conditions.
Hanan Abdul-Wahab Aludiba was granted bail in the sum of GH¢50 million, while Faiza Seidu Wuni was admitted to bail in the amount of GH¢3.5 million.
As part of the bail conditions, the court directed that each accused person provide two justified sureties before the terms of their release can be fulfilled.
The court explained that the sureties must demonstrate adequate financial capability or ownership of property to guarantee compliance with the bail conditions.
In addition, the High Court imposed travel restrictions on both accused persons pending the determination of the case.
The court further ordered that Hanan Abdul-Wahab Aludiba and Faiza Seidu Wuni be placed on a stop list at all entry and exit points across the country as the trial continues.
