Five of 12 suspected cyber fraudsters, who were granted bail by the Bole district magistrate court presided over by His Worship Edward Essel, are currently on the run.
The five, who are Nigerian nationals, were arrested on 3rd March 2022 at Bole together with the other seven in their respective residential areas by the Bole District Immigration officers.
They were subsequently arraigned and were granted bail of GHS 20,000 to reappear on July 13th, 2022, but unfortunately, only six appeared and the five are on the run.
The Bole district crime officer, who also doubles as the prosecutor, in this case, ASP Wisdom Pavis, briefing Adom News, said their case has been adjourned to the 26th of this month.
He revealed that laptops, substances believed to be narcotic herbs, and mobile phones retrieved from the suspects are in Accra at the Cyber Centre for the test.

What an incredible time to be alive. What would have been a bizarre reality a few decades ago has become a bizarre reality: a Texan man is currently on the run after authorities discovered he had forged his wife’s signature on their divorce papers and perjured himself during a divorce hearing.
Cops are looking for Paul Nixon, 51, of Harris County, Texas, for allegedly forging his wife’s and notary’s names on court documents. Nixon applied with a judge on February 15, according to the police report. He then legally dissolves his marriage two months later by submitting the completed divorce paperwork.
Nixon’s wife discovered she had been divorced without her knowledge in May and reported it to the police. Nixon is being sought for aggravated forgery after officials uncovered the forged divorce papers he had signed himself.
Nixon’s wife says that her husband filed for divorce without her knowledge or consent and that he completed the process without her knowledge or consent. She only found out after all of the proceedings were finished and the court had filed the final divorce decree.
