The Crusading Guide reproducing a story it carried in its December 28, 2000 – January 3,2001 edition says on-gong investigations by the paper have established that the Chief Executioner in the infamous June 30, 1992 murder of the three High Court Judges and a retired Army Major, Lance Corporal Samuel Amedeka, has consistently maintained contact with Mr and Mrs Rawlings ever since he escaped from lawful custody in Ghana in June 1983.
The paper says sources close to the Presidential Household have intimated to the paper on condition of strict confidentiality, that Lance Corporal Amedeka who is a “wanted man”, had over the years written a couple of letters to Mr and Mrs Rawlings, requesting for financial assistance which the Rawlings allegedly obliged.
The source underscored that Amedeka who crossed to Lome, Togo, in 1983 following the jail break at the Nsawam Prisons in the wake of the June 19, 1983 abortive coup against the erstwhile PNDC, with the assistance of a Colonel (identity withheld) who was then highly-placed in the Border Guards, had been receiving huge sums of money from the Rawlingses via this same Colonel who was still serving in the Ghana Armed Forces.
