NAM 1 as come under fire after an Accra Circuit Court issued a warrant for his arrest last week.

The arrest warrant follows the failure of Menzgold to refund the investments of aggrieved customers who have their monies locked up with the gold dealership firm.

Meanwhile, the Menzgold CEO is currently under arrest in Dubai in connection with a separate gold trading deal gone bad within the Emirati jurisdiction, the Ghana Police Service has said.

On Monday, a Ghanaian delegation from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration and Attorney General’s office left to United Arab Emirates (UAE), to engage authorities there on the next line of action.
