The Bureau of National Investigations (BNI) has denied comments it was not after ex-Information Minister Asamoah Boateng.The ex-minister who was prevented from traveling with his family on Sunday by officials said to be from the BNI, told Joy News that agents within the security outfit had told him they were not looking for him.Mr. Asamoah-Boateng further claimed the agents had told him the two operatives who stopped him and his family from traveling were not from the BNI.But the bureau has denied the assertions four days after the incident.The BNI has not only claimed responsibility for accosting the ex- minister from traveling, but has also stated emphatically its officials invited Mr. Asamoah-Boateng to assist in investigations into a contract he awarded a construction firm, Plexiform, when he was in office.In an interview with Joy News’ Dzifa Bampoe, the BNI maintained its officials who stopped the former Information Minister clearly had their identity cards hanging around their necks and expressed shock over comments from the ex-minister and his wife that they (the operatives) failed to identify themselves.Mrs Zuleika Asamoah-Boateng, wife of the ex-minister have heeded two invitations by the BNI in connection to the scuffle said to have ensued at the airport on Sunday.She allegedly snatched her husband's passport said to have been seized by the BNI agents, something, a deputy Information Minister, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, said was illegal and actionable.
