CID launches special task force to curb stolen vehicle influx

The Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service has launched a special intelligence-led task force to clamp down on vehicles stolen overseas and smuggled into Ghana, as part of a broader crackdown on organized transnational car theft syndicates.

So far, the task force has impounded six vehicles believed to have been rented fraudulently and shipped into Ghana. The seized models include four Toyota Tundras, one Toyota RAV4, and one Range Rover, all traced back to Canadian […]

Kevin Taylor faces GH¢2.95m defamation judgment enforcement

Kevin Taylor, the social media activist behind Loud Silence Media, is now facing enforcement of a GH¢2.95 million defamation judgment, after the Accra High Court granted lawyer Ace Anan Ankomah permission to use substituted service—a one-time page in the Daily Graphic—to serve notices related to the default verdict. The judgment stems from a 2020 ruling that Taylor made false allegations claiming that Ankomah was part of a clandestine plot involving a Dubai-based firm and top members of the NPP government to discredit Nana Appiah Mensah (NAM1), CEO of the Menzgold company. Taylor’s absence at multiple court proceedings left Justices no choice but to issue a default judgment, awarding a total of GH¢2.95 million against him and Loud Silence: GH¢2 million for general damages, GH¢500,000 aggravated, GH¢400,000 in special damages for reputation loss, and GH¢50,000 in legal costs.
