The Gbese District Court has remanded into police custody social media socialite, Abu Trica, for three weeks following his latest court appearance in connection with an alleged $8 million romance fraud case traced to the United States.
Abu Trica and his alleged accomplice, Daniel Yusif, appeared before the court on Wednesday, February 25, 2026, as proceedings continue to determine whether they should be extradited to the United States to face trial.
The court adjourned the case to March 18, 2026, for further hearings and related legal matters.
The case originates from an indictment by U.S. authorities, accusing Abu Trica of involvement in a large-scale online romance scam estimated at over $8 million. He was initially arrested on December 11, 2025, following the indictment.
The current proceedings before the Gbese District Court focus on assessing the legal basis for his possible extradition to the United States.
With the court’s decision to remand him in custody, Abu Trica will remain detained until his next appearance on March 18, when the extradition matter is expected to proceed.
