Reports from international news website indicate that, the Ghana Police Service has rendered an apology to an American couple who were mistakenly arrested for with four Ghanaian kids they had adopted.According to the CNN report, the police did not only apologize for the mix-up, but blamed wrong intelligence from its anti-human trafficking unit.Joy FM’s investigations gathered that grandparents of the children, gave them out for adoption because their parents are dead.Last Friday, police arrested Sol and Christine Moghadam for trafficking four Ghanaian children they claim to have adopted.CID Director of Operations, ACP Frank Kwofie told Joy FM they were picked while they were about to board a plane with the children for their base in California.Though the police said the couple had submitted adoption documents that in the words of the police appeared genuine, they held them because they needed to assist investigations.The couple were however granted bail. On Wednesday the police told Joy FM they would run checks with the social welfare in the Ashanti Region.They insisted it was important to establish beyond doubt that a circuit court in Kumasi truly sanctioned the adoption.Joy FM also discovered a video blog on which the couple told the story of the adoption journey.
