They are all expected to be arraigned on Thursday.
Officials of the South African High Commission have also concluded their first round of investigations of the three South African police officers.
Meanwhile, the three ex-Police officers are still in BNI custody undergoing interrogation.
The NPP has subsequently condemned the BNI's continued detention of the three ex-police officers for questioning.
The party had argued that the three were only in Ghana to train security guards for the New Patriotic Party’s presidential candidate, Nana Akufo-Addo, and his running mate Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, and that they posed no threat.
