GHANA’S CYBER SECURITY AUTHORITY REJECTS FBI CLAIMS, SAYS GHANA LED “OPERATION BLACKOUT
Ghana’s Cyber Security Authority has formally rejected the portrayal of the recent scam-centre crackdown as an FBI-led raid, saying Ghanaian agencies conceived, planned, coordinated and executed the operation with support from the FBI, UK NCA and other partners. The CSA says eight suspects were arrested while about 120 people, largely Nigerians, were rescued as suspected trafficking victims. Authorities seized 136 phones, 130 laptops, four vehicles, jewellery and 10 Nigerian passports, while investigations and repatriation arrangements continue.
