The Accra High Court has ordered the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) to immediately release a stolen 2025 Mercedes-Benz V-Class to its rightful owner, French car rental company Tasocak Alexandre HT-Rent A Car, based in Arnouville, France.
Justice John Eugene Nyante Nyadu granted an application for an order of mandamus and prohibition filed by the company, represented in Ghana by its lawful attorney, Kwame Owusu Asante.
The court also barred the GRA from releasing the vehicle to any third party and directed that it be re-exported to France.
Court documents show that the luxury van, with chassis number W1VVMLFZ0S4437034 and registration GY-865-XB, was fraudulently exported to Ghana by Appiah Myke-Cosby, who had rented it in France on September 23, 2024, at €2,800.65.
