Eight SIM Boxing centres have been busted by the
Police following extensive technical work undertaken by Subah Infosolutions
Ghana Limited for the National Communications Authority (NCA), Ministry of
Communications and the Security.
Some SIM Box fraudsters were arrested during the
exercise in Accra, Tema, Koforidua and Kumasi. Subah’s state-of-the-art telecom
devices helped to locate these fraudsters.
Government and the people of Ghana lost about US$33.5
million from the activities of fraudsters in the eight locations busted.
Dealing with this situation has therefore become priority for the Ministry of
Communications, NCA and telecom operators.
In a media briefing, the Minister for
Communications, Mr. Edward Omane-Boamah said ‘Government is delighted that
Subah Infosolutions is helping save the country telecom revenue loses caused by
diversion of international calls through fraudulent SIM boxes. Government will
continue the fight against SIM Box fraud relentlessly.’
The Managing Director of Subah Infosolutions Ghana
Limtied, Mr. Birenda Sasmal assured that: ‘Assisting regulatory and security
agencies to effect the arrest of these fraudsters is one of the many ways Subah
is helping reduce revenue loss to the Government and people of Ghana. Subah
remains committed to facilitating effective telecom resource mobilization for
national development.’
