Speaking to the BBC, Mr. Agyapong said he sympathises with the bereaved family but has no regrets over publicly showing Ahmed’s photos.

“I bear no moral responsibility over the death and I have no regret. Although I dread what has happened to him, I was just saving Ghanaians from criminals, so I don’t regret showing his picture to the public. I sympathise with the bereaved family because death is unfortunate. [They shouldn’t look at one person and put blame on]. The nature of his [Ahmed’s] work exposed him to a number of things I didn’t contribute to,” the maverick MP said.

“I did not show his picture for people to go and kill him. I was just forewarning people that he is bad that when he comes to their premises, he is going to put gadgets there. I will never regret showing the pictures.”

The legislator reiterated his innocence, saying he was not behind the murder of the journalist.

He added that he does not trust the Police to find the killers of the late Ahmed.

He said he is personally conducting better investigations into the murder of the journalist than the Police.

“I don’t trust the Police. No, I don’t trust them. I am even doing better investigations than the Police.I just don’t trust the police. I have a lot of evidence but I don’t share with anybody. I will serialise them,” Mr. Agyapong added.

Slain journalist Ahmed, who is a key member of the TigerEye PI, was shot dead at Madina in Accra two weeks ago.
