The Minister of Communications, Digital Technology and Innovations, Samuel Nartey George, has announced that the government has initiated steps to secure the extradition of a Russian national accused of secretly filming and publishing intimate encounters with several Ghanaian women.
Speaking to the media on Saturday, February 14, 2026, Sam George disclosed that the suspect, identified as Yaytseslav, violated Ghanaian laws and will be pursued through all available legal and diplomatic channels.
“It is a crime to record a person without their consent, and even when you record and keep it on your phone, if the person finds out and reports it to us, we will prosecute you, and you will go to jail. That’s the law of the land,” the minister stated.
He stressed that the offence was aggravated by the alleged distribution of the recordings online for financial gain. According to him, the government will collaborate with international law enforcement agencies, including Interpol, to ensure the suspect is brought to justice.
“Now you don’t just record it, but you go and post it on a website for financial gain. That gentleman would be looked for. We will activate every resource at our disposal, working with Interpol, the way we’ve worked with Interpol to extradite Ghanaians to other jurisdictions,” he said.
Sam George further revealed that he has invited the Russian Ambassador to Ghana to assist with investigations and potential extradition proceedings. He emphasized that the government remains committed to safeguarding the rights and dignity of all citizens.
“Ghanaian citizens, irrespective of their decision-making, will be protected by their government. The Government of John Dramani Mahama will ensure that every citizen’s rights are protected,” he added.
The minister cited the Cyber Security Authority Act (CSA), Act 1038, noting that recording and publishing intimate content without consent constitutes a criminal offence under Ghanaian law.
He also cautioned Ghanaians to exercise vigilance in their interactions to avoid falling prey to similar schemes.
