The Swedru-based businessman, whose real name is Frederick Kumi, was arrested by a team of Ghanaian security operatives on December 11, 2025.
According to the US Justice Department, he was allegedly part of a romance fraud syndicate that defrauded elderly Americans out of more than $8m.
He faces charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and a forfeiture specification if extradited to the United States.
The businessman has denied all charges, claiming he was framed by the FBI.
In an interview on Accra-based Onua TV on June 3, 2026, Abu Trica said authorities had acknowledged that the amount involved was $13,000 and nowhere close to $8 million.
"There is no such thing as an $8 million claim in the case against me. They themselves admitted they gave me $13,000," he said.
Below is the Twitter video of Abu Trica speaking about his FBI case.
Abu Trica granted bail in extradition fight
After months in custody, the Accra High Court granted Abu Trica bail on Tuesday, April 21, 2026, in the sum of GHS 30 million with two sureties to be justified.
The businessman was released on May 15 after finally meeting all the prescribed conditions.
Initially, his extradition was approved by the Gbese District Court, but he took his fight to the High Court, which has yet to make a decision.
Abu Trica’s extradition case adjourned
On Thursday, June 11, 2026, Abu Trica returned to the Accra High Court for another hearing on his extradition fight against state prosecutors.
The socialite was accompanied by his devoted partner and the mother of his son, Queenie, as he arrived at the court.
Videos shared on social media later showed the duo leaving the court with the businessman appearing to be in an upbeat mood.
According to reports, the Accra High Court adjourned the ruling on the extradition to July 2, 2026, giving Abu Trica a few more weeks of freedom pending the final judgment.
