The Ghana Police Service has rejected claims that a journalist was arrested because of reports concerning President Akufo-Addo's alleged properties in the United Kingdom.
The service clarified that the journalist, Kweku Ziedeng, was arrested.
This arrest was for alleged contempt of court and defamation, according to a Police statement.
The statement did not specify the exact details of the alleged contempt or defamation.
It also did not immediately provide information on when Ziedeng was arrested.
The allegations about President Akufo-Addo's properties in the UK have also not been confirmed.
Authorities continue to investigate the case.
This situation highlights ongoing discussions about press freedom and legal boundaries in Ghana.
