Ghana Immigration Service tackles human trafficking and exploitative street begging

A statement issued by Maud Anima Quainoo, Deputy Commissioner of Ghana Immigration Service and copied to the Ghana News Agency in Accra said the operation targeted criminal syndicates using organized begging as a cover to traffic and control vulnerable foreign nationals, particularly women and children.

The Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) has launched a decisive intelligence-led anti-human trafficking operation to rescue victims and dismantle exploitative street begging networks across the Greater Accra and Ashanti Regions.

The operation follows previous major enforcement actions and demonstrates the sustained commitment of the GIS to combating human trafficking, upholding immigration law, and safeguarding the dignity and rights of all persons within the borders of Ghana.
