In Tuba, which is in the Ga South Municipality, 11 foreigners are now being prosecuted for allegedly running a counterfeit US dollar printing conspiracy, according to the Ghana Immigration Service (GIS).
For allegedly counterfeiting American dollars, the suspects were taken into custody on January 5, 2026, by the Anti-Human Trafficking and Cyber Fraud Taskforce Unit, which is under the Weija Sector Command.
Along with photocopiers, computers, and stacks of counterfeit cash, the cops confiscated a router during the raid that they thought was used in the unlawful conduct.
Chief Superintendent Richard Coffie, the commander of the Weija Sector, informed the media during a workshop on human trafficking and smuggling that the investigation is over and that all 11 people involved in the crime are currently on trial.
He claimed that between January and March 2026, the command also released 42 additional foreign nationals who had reportedly been brought into the nation for cyber fraud activities.
He claimed that continuous intelligence-led operations were responsible for the successful operations.
In order to improve monitoring and concentrate on organizations involved in human trafficking and smuggling, Chief Superintendent Coffie added that steps are being taken to form a specialized squad.
“The arrest of 11 foreign nationals involved in the production of counterfeit currency was made possible by a significant arrest made earlier this year. According to him, these individuals were illegally imported into the country and were engaged in producing fake money.
In conclusion, he emphasized that the perpetrators would be held accountable under both Ghanaian and international law.
