The Chairperson of the New Patriotic Party�s legal team expected to challenge the December election results in court, Gloria Akuffo has indicated that if the intention of the criminals who broke into her office was to retrieve the evidence, they will not succeed. Unknown assailants broke into and ransacked Madam Akuffo�s office last Saturday, making away with some items including a laptop. In an interview with Citi News, Madam Akuffo stated that though the act could be politically motivated, the attempt acquire any evidence failed. �At this stage, you can�t rule out anything but I can�t be categorical and if anybody is looking for something on me because I am chairing the legal committee, they won�t find anything because I don�t have anything either here or at home. If that is what they were looking for, then they found nothing of that nature.� Narrating the incident to Citi News she noted: �We noticed that they came through one of the windows in the front office, stepped on the front office chair. They also stepped on another chair. We have a camera fixed in here so probably they were checking the camera.� �But also we noticed that they had pulled drawers and pulled out papers and they took away a computer. So far, that is what we have noted. Obviously one of my junior colleagues' computer has been taken away. They have tampered with the internet server.�
