Aisha Huang, the ‘galamsey kingpin’ who was deported in 2019 is back in Ghana and has been re-arrested for engaging in illegal mining.

She has been slapped with two charges which are: mining without licence, engaging in the sale and purchase of minerals without a valid licence.

She was arrested with three others — Johng Li Hua, Huang Jei and Huaid Hai Hun.

Aisha Huang and her accomplices were brought before an Accra Circuit Court last Friday.

The Ghana News Agency (GNA) reported that, the court preserved Aisha’s plea because there was no Chinese interpreter.

GNA reported that, at the court, Detective Chief Inspector Frederick Sarpong prayed for the court to remand the accused persons while investigations continue.

The galamsey kinpin and her accomplices were subsequently remanded. They are to re-appear in court on September 14, 2022.
