Twenty-eight foreign nationals and one landlord were arrested during a security operation in Pakyi, Ashanti Region. The raid targeted individuals without proper documentation.
The Ghana Immigration Service, Ghana Police Service, and Amansie West District Assembly conducted the operation. Their goal was to find and apprehend foreigners living in the area without valid permits.
The operation took place at Pakyi Numbers One and Two in the Amansie West District. Authorities have not yet released further details on the nationalities of those arrested.
The arrested landlord is accused of housing individuals who are not legally permitted to be in Ghana. Investigations into the landlord's activities are ongoing.
This action is part of broader efforts by security agencies to maintain national security and ensure adherence to immigration laws.
Those found to be in the country illegally face deportation. The landlord may face charges related to aiding illegal immigration.
