Ex-KIA official completes US jail term, deported to Ghana

The owner of Sohin Security Check Limited, the company that was providing security at Kotoka International Airport (KIA) has reportedly been deported from the United States after serving a 24-month jail term. 

The Daily Guide reports that Solomon Adelaquaye was jailed only 24 months in the US for dealing in narcotics because he cooperated with investigators. 

He is said to have returned on the 13th of last month via Delta Air Lines Flight 478 and was immediately whisked away by NACOB officials for debriefing. 

The paper quoted a US Department of Homeland Security document which contained the details of Mr Adelaquaye’s deportation.  

In May 2013, Mr Adelaquaye was arrested together with two Nigerians and a Colombian following a joint US-Ghana operation. 

He was reportedly tipping off drug barons as well as aiding them to use Kotoka international Airport for their operations.
