According to EOCO, the upcoming invitations and subsequent investigations are connected to a case involving stolen luxury vehicles smuggled from the United States to Ghana. These criminal activities are alleged to have been orchestrated by a syndicate led by 31-year-old Nana Kwabena Amuah, who is currently serving a seven-year sentence in the US.
