While trafficking another set of young girls from Nigeria to Ghana for pr*stitution, he was arrested by a young female police officer.
A notorious human trafficker who has been on the wanted list for 10 years has now been apprehended by the Buduburam District Police in the Gomoa East District of the Central Region, Ghana.
The accused nick-named Pu**y Mama, has allegedly trafficked over 3,000 victims across Africa.
According to a police report, the suspect, who identified as inters3x with both male and female genitalia, is allegedly involved in trafficking women and girls from Nigeria, Liberia, and Togo into Ghana for pr*stitution.
It was gathered that the women were forced into pr*stitution at popular venues, including hostels and nightclubs in Kasoa, Buduburam and nearby areas.
He was said to have lured the women with promises of lucrative jobs but later coerced them into pr*stitution.
He had evaded arrest by Nigerian and Ghanaian police for 10 years due to alleged mystical powers.
According to police sources, the alleged human trafficker always disappeared before authorities could get to him.
However, luck eluded him during one of his operations.
