The government has revealed that Aisha Huang entered the nation through approved routes with forged documents.
This contradicts information by the Ghana Immigration Service, which indicates that Aisha Huang used unapproved routes into the country.
According to government spokesperson on National Security, Palgrave Boakye Danquah, after her entry, security agencies tracked her to ascertain if she was the same person.
He added that the suspect would face the full rigors of the law.
“For us as a government, we are aware that she entered with illegal documents; forged documents which do not represent the names but because of how good our security services are, we had to follow her to be sure that she was the same person that was deported out of the country.”
“Over several weeks, we arrested her and got to know that she entered into the country with false documents,” he said.
A few days ago, news broke of the re-arrest of the ‘Galamsey’ Kingpin in her Kumasi apartment for her suspected involvement in the illegal sale and acquisition of minerals.
The news of her re-arrest and return to Ghana startled many Ghanaians and reignited debate about the country’s war against ‘galamsey’, as many felt she should have been prosecuted instead.
Earlier reports showed that Aisha Huang re-entered Ghana from a neighbouring country through land border.
On September 2, Aisha and her three accomplices were charged with engaging in the sale and purchase of minerals without a license.
However, the Attorney General, Godfred Yeboah Dame, intends to charge her with offences both past and present. As a result, the AG has requested information about the evidence gathered by investigators in 2018 as well as information about alleged current offences.
