Influencer claims US authorities violated his rights, sparking outrage
Ghanaian social media personality Abu Trica has made explosive claims that the FBI forced him to reveal his phone password and sign documents he couldn’t read during a controversial arrest, intensifying his ongoing legal battle against multiple agencies.
“They made me give up my phone password and sign papers I didn’t even understand,” Abu Trica told reporters, alleging serious violations of his constitutional and human rights.
ALLEGATIONS SPARK OUTRAGE
According to Abu Trica, the actions by the FBI, combined with Ghanaian agencies like EOCO and NACOC, were coercive and unlawful, forming the basis for his lawsuit seeking GH¢10 million in damages.
Social media reactions have been fierce:
- Supporters argue Abu Trica is standing up to powerful institutions
- Critics question the accuracy of his claims
- Legal analysts say the case could set an important precedent on rights protection in cross-border investigations
THE FIGHT FOR JUSTICE
Abu Trica insists that he is determined to expose what he describes as heavy-handed tactics by both local and international authorities, saying the ordeal has caused psychological, financial, and reputational damage.
“I will not be intimidated. This is about my rights and the law,” he declared.
WHAT THIS MEANS
The case raises pressing questions about:
- How citizens’ rights are protected during international investigations
- The limits of law enforcement powers in cross-border operations
- Accountability of authorities when coercion and procedural breaches are alleged
As Abu Trica’s lawsuit unfolds, the nation watches closely, with many wondering: will he succeed in holding these agencies accountable?
