Interior Minister, Muntaka Mubarak has announced that the NDC government is not interested in prosecuting foreigners engaged in fraud and illegal mining activities across the country.
He says the government is rather putting in place a new policy which will see the deportation of such individuals upon their arrest.
Speaking during an engagement with the Ashanti Regional Police Command, the Interior Minister stressed the government is focused on removing foreign nationals who participate in galamsey, which has caused extensive environmental damage across the country.
He also indicated that such individuals who are also arrested engaging in scamming and other fraudulent activities will also face the same punishment.
