Ghana's Crackdown on Illegal Gold Trade: Three Indians Arrested
Ghana Cracks Down on Illegal Gold Trade: Three Indians Arrested. Ghana is intensifying its fight against illegal gold trading. A recent joint operation between the Gold Board and National Security led to the arrest of three Indians, apprehended with gold and cash. This follows a previous incident where individuals involved in similar activities were released, prompting concerns about leniency. A Gold Board representative stated, "Just like any Ghanaian who breaks the law, the three arrested Indians will face the full consequences. No one will be handled with kid gloves." This decisive action signals a renewed commitment to enforcing regulations and protecting Ghana's gold resources. The ongoing investigation and subsequent legal proceedings will be crucial in determining the full extent of the illegal activities and sending a strong message to deter future offenses.
