Ofori-Atta filed the suit against two senior police operatives from the agency, DSP Bismark Boakye Ansah and Chief Inspector Mensah, for allegedly trespassing on private property and violating the right to privacy.
The writ, filed and issued at the High Court, argued that the raid violated the privacy of the occupants of the residence, noting that the operatives who stormed the house presented no warrant authorising them to conduct the search.
According to the statement of claim, Ofori-Atta was out of the country for medical treatment at the time of the incident.
His domestic staff reported that a team of 12 individuals, including the two defendants, nine military personnel armed with assault rifles, and several plainclothes officers, entered the property without prior notice or consent.
The operatives are also reported to have searched other areas of the premises, including bedrooms, the kitchen, and closets.
