All banks in Ghana as well as non-bank financial institutions have been asked to furnish the Financial Intelligence Centre with specific information on former president of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) Kwesi Nyantakyi.
The financial institutions are also requested to provide the same information on Ghana Football Association.
The Financial Intelligence Centre, established to protect the economy and particularly the financial integrity of Ghana, suspects that Mr. Nyantakyi may have been involved in money laundering following the exposé into endemic corruption in football administration by investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas.
Meanwhile, the High Court has placed an interim injunction on the activities of Ghana Football Association, following a legal suit brought before it by the Attorney General, Gloria Akuffo.
The court order restrained the GFA and all members from conducting any official business for the next 10 days on Tuesday.
Mr Nyantakyi is also being investigated by the Criminal Investigation Department of the Ghana Police Service.
He has been charged with defrauding by false pretence.
