A High Court sitting in Accra, has directed the Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) to place Toh You Kang, a Singaporean national, on its Stop List, effectively barring him from entering or exiting the country through any port due to allegations of a multimillion-dollar fraud.
The directive, issued on July 3, 2025 and signed by Deputy Registrar, Gordon A. Owusu, follows a pending matter before Criminal Court ‘5’ presided over by Her Ladyship, Justice Kizita Naa Koowa Quarshie.
The court order references suit number CR/0530/2025 and, includes the accused’s passport number, K4442228D.
The Ghana Immigration Service, has been asked to act on the attached order dated 25th June 2025 and related biodata immediately.
In a related development, Emmanuel Nii Ashie Moore, a notable Ghanaian businessman and public figure, has issued an official disclaimer notice publicly distancing himself and his business partners from Mr Toh You Kang.
In the statement dated July 7, 2025, Ashie Moore, clarified that Mr Toh You Kang was initially nominated by his Chinese business partners, Foshan Yuejian Cable and Wire, to assist in English-language business transactions.
However, Ashie Moore, explained that Foshan Yuejian Cable and Wire had since issued a disclaimer disassociating themselves from Mr. Toh You Kang.
“In alignment with that decision and in the interest of clarity and public awareness, I also formally disclaim any association with Mr. Toh You Kang regarding any business dealings or transactions, effective immediately,” the statement read.
He cautioned the general public and all concerned parties to avoid any engagements, agreements, or transactions with Mr. Toh You Kang, stating that any such dealings would be at their own risk.
He emphasised that neither he nor his affiliates will be held responsible for any actions or representations made by Mr. Toh You Kang.
Mr Moore, who is the Greater Accra Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), had recently denied reports of an alleged $2.2 million fraud involving Singaporean national Toh You Kang.
A statement issued by Mr Moore’s lawyer, Gideon Tettey Tetteh, stated that Mr Moore, had not received any payment of $800,000 from Mr Kang, dismissing the claims as false.
“Allegations that Mr. Moore solicited funds from Mr. Kang for political purposes, particularly in connection with the 2024 NDC campaign, are patently false.
“Fundraising efforts for the campaign were conducted transparently by the ‘Monitor and Win’ committee to boost grassroots participation and reward hardworking party members,” the statement said.
It added that the former Adentan MP is, in fact, a victim of a massive fraud allegedly perpetrated by Mr Kang, who has been on remand for the past five weeks.
According to the statement, Ashie Moore and his business partners, filed a complaint with the Greater Accra Regional Police Command, accusing Mr Kang of defrauding them of about $3 million under false pretences.
The Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) is also reportedly investigating separate claims that Mr Kang stole an additional US$2.8 million from the group.
The statement further denied allegations that Mr Moore extorted money, seized Mr Kang’s passport, or assaulted him, describing such claims as baseless and defamatory.
Meanwhile, Mr Moore’s legal team, has petitioned the Attorney General to take over the case, citing the magnitude of the matter as being beyond the police’s remit.
