The police stated that they have contacted the Ghana Immigration Service to provide further details of the suspects and their Ghanaian sponsors to assist them with their investigation.

The issue of Chinese involvement in “Galamsey” activities has dominated the headlines over the past few days.
Last Friday, “Galamsey” lead Aisha Huang (also referred to as En Huang) was remanded in custody by the Accra High Court on charges of mining without a license and engaging in the sale and purchase of minerals without a license, the second time after 2017, which saw her deportation from the country.
Three other Chinese nationals, namely Johng Li Hua, Huang Jei, and Huaid Hai Hun, were also charged with illegally trading in minerals without a license.
On Wednesday, the Attorney General disclosed that it had requested new dockets on Ms. Huang and her accomplices to begin prosecutions of both old and new crimes.
