A Police Constable with the West Area Command Unit in the United Kingdom, Bright Shine-Sedziafa, has been dismissed without notice for wrongfully transporting the son of a Ghanaian woman extradited to the US, to the European country.

He was found guilty of gross misconduct after a police hearing uncovered his role in facilitating the child of the Ghanaian woman, entry and falsifying border documents.

Constable Shine-Sedziafa was found guilty of breaching the Standard of Professional Behaviour of the UK police when he dishonestly presented a fraudulently signed 'Minor (Child) Travel Consent' form to the UK Border Officials while transporting the child to the UK.

The officer was also dismissed for agreeing to transport the child, with whom he had no prior relationship, from Ghana to the UK.
