“Abu Trica finally granted bail but “
Abu Trica has been granted bail by the High Court as he continues to fight extradition to the United States.
His lawyer, Oliver Barker-Vormawor, confirmed the development in a brief Facebook post on April 21, 2026, writing: “The High Court has just granted bail to Abu Trica. Shalom.”
Abu Trica, a Ghanaian social media personality and businessman based in Swedru, was arrested on December 11, 2025, in a joint operation involving Ghanaian authorities and US law enforcement.
He is accused of being linked to an international cybercrìme network behind r0mance scàms targeting elderly vìctims in the US, with investigators claiming l0sses of over $8 million.
The indictment also all3ges the use of fake identities and AI tools to deceìve victims before requesting money.
He faces charges including c0nspiracy to c0mmìt wire fràud and money làundering, 0ffences that could carry up to 20 years in pris0n if proven in a US court.
Following his arrest, he was arraigned at the Gbese District Court in Accra as extradition proceedings began at the request of US authorities.
Two other suspects initially linked to the case, Lord Eshun and Bernard Aidoo, were later cleared after prosecutors said no evidence was found against them. Their removal became part of the defence argument, which also included attempts to block the extradition through High Court applications
