GIS arrests 17, rescues 85 trafficking victims in Dawhenya
The Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) has arrested 17 foreign nationals suspected of operating a cyber fraud syndicate and rescued 85 victims of suspected human trafficking during an intelligence-led operation at Dawhenya in the Greater Accra Region.
Reaffirming its commitment to tackling transnational crime and irregular migration, the Service stated: “The Ghana Immigration Service remains steadfast in its statutory mandate to safeguard Ghana’s borders, combat irregular migration, dismantle transnational criminal networks, and protect victims of human trafficking from exploitation,” the Service said.
The operation, conducted in the early hours of Sunday, July 26, targeted a property located opposite the China West Mall, which authorities believe was being used as a base for the alleged criminal network.
