He, however, declined a nudge by the journalist to provide more details.
Anas' investigative reports have always been explosive, albeit controversial sometimes.
His last big report exposed the rot in football administration in Ghana and led to the sacking of then-GFA boss, Kwesi Nyantakyi.
Nyantakyi has been fighting the criminal case that has ensued over the report in court.
He claims he was baited by undercover investigators with hidden cameras and other gadgets and that the report about Anas and his Tiger Eye PI team distorted facts to suit their interests.

The former GFA boss said on Wednesday, March 15, 2023, that the ruling vindicates his position that Anas is up to no good and was only in the business of destroying people's reputations for his personal gain.
Kwesi Nyantakyi further disclosed after the ruling that Anas once tried to use a lecturer to extort money from him.

Also, a High Court in March 2023 threw out a defamation suit filed by Anas Aremeyaw Anas against the maverick politician, Ken Agyapong.
The case was filed in 2018 after Agyapong produced his famous "Who Watches the Watchman" documentary to counter Anas' journalist practices.
Anas was demanding GH¢25 million in aggravated damages from Ken Agyapong, but the court presided over by Justice Eric Baah ruled on Wednesday, March 15, 2023, that Anas' case had no merit.
He also berated Anas and his Tiger Eye PI team for practising investigative "terrorism" and not "investigative journalism".
