Embattled Ghanaian writer and journalist, Fadi Samih Daboussi, has said he does not regret publishing articles said to contain offensive comments about President John Mahama.<\/p>\n

According to him, he wrote the articles without malice, however, the negative inferences drawn by a section of the public about the publications made it appear offensive.<\/p>\n

Mr Daboussi, who was arrested at the Kotoka International Airport by the BNI last week and released later on a self-recognizance bail <\/a>,\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>said he is ready to apologize for the commentary in his article if people find it offensive.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt looks like everybody needs to do due diligence and double check on information before putting it out there or writing articles. Even that, I picked information from sources there were already available, I do not regret. However, I do regret the insinuation of evil that people might have inferred the compendium of information that I had put together,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom my point of view, I did not mean anything evil, but unfortunately some form of inference was made that did not go down well with some people and based on that I apologized and I don\u2019t mind doing that again,\u201d Mr Daboussi added.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Lawyer to Mr. Daboussi, Hassan Tampoli, has told Citi News<\/strong> that his client\u2019s visit to the BNI on Friday was postponed.<\/p>\n

Mr. Daboussi was expected to turn himself in at the BNI intermittently, as part of the conditions that secured his release from custody.<\/p>\n

But his lawyer says the BNI called to cancel the arrangement.<\/p>\n

‘Lawyers to sue BNI over Fadi Daboussi\u2019s detention\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lawyers of Fadi Samih Daboussi, earlier indicated that they were going to\u00a0take legal action against the Bureau of National Investigations<\/a><\/strong><\/span> (BNI) for the ‘unlawful’ detention of their client [Mr. Daboussi].<\/p>\n

The Ghanaian writer and journalist, known to be a sympathizer of the opposition NPP, was reportedly arrested at the Kotoka International Airport for allegedly publishing a book which many say contains offensive comments about \u00a0President John Mahama.<\/p>\n

Subsequently, the BNI is said to have ransacked his home.<\/p>\n

Mr. Daboussi is the author of 59 years to nowhere, the future is now\u2019.<\/p>\n
