The Weija Sector Command of the Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) has arrested 11 foreign nationals involved in counterfeit money printing and cyber fraud activities at a residential apartment in Tuba, Accra.
Suspects were apprehended during an intelligent-led operation conducted by the Anti-Human Trafficking and Cyber Fraud Taskforce Unit of the Weija Sector Command, on Monday, January 5, 2026.
Items seized from the scene include: laptops, routers, mobile phones, fake dollar notes and table top printers/photocopier machines.
The suspects (names withheld) are currently in custody for further investigations.
The Service commends the public for their continuous support and urges citizens to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities of any foreigner in their communities to the law enforcement agencies.
The Service particularly urges landlords and property owners to exercise due diligence when renting out their properties to foreign nationals since harbouring illegal immigrants is an offence under section 52(1)(b) of the Immigration Act 2000 Act 573.
“The Comptroller General of Immigration and Management of the Service remain committed to protecting the territorial integrity of the country and ensuring compliance with Immigration Laws at all times,” a statement issued in Accra on Wednesday and signed by the Deputy Commissioner of Immigration at the Public Affairs Department, Maud Anima Quainoo stated.
