Ghana plans to send three citizens to America for internet fraud charges. Interior Minister Muntaka Mohammed-Mubarak ordered their arrest after receiving an official request from the United States government. The American diplomatic office asked Ghana to help catch these suspects under the country's extradition laws. Officials want to arrest Isaac Odso Boateng, Inusah Ahmed, Derrick Van Yeboah, and Patrick Kwame Asare for alleged online crimes. All four men are Ghanaian nationals who authorities believe still live inside the country.

The Interior Minister sent a letter to the Accra District Court on March 18 explaining the situation. He used powers given to him under Ghana's Extradition Act from 1960 to make the arrest order. The letter told the court magistrate to issue warrants for catching all four suspects. American officials worked through Ghana's Foreign Affairs Ministry to make their formal request. The minister must follow legal procedures before sending any citizens to face charges in foreign courts.
