American Citizen Duped

Jiad Swaid, Hadi Swaid, and George Slim Ganda Exposed

Investigation undertaken by a team of journalists have unearthed those behind the scene of a covert fraudulent Gold business that led to the frustration of an American citizen, who is seeking justice to get back her $300,000 (United States Dollars).

Speaking to journalists via zoom, American Citizen, Dr. Sana explained:

“We were discussing about doing gold business at Swiss Hotel with an Ambassador who had earlier done the business before. Because of the size of the hotel, people can eavesdrop into your conversation at the restaurant.”

She said that it was as a result of this conversation that Jiad and his son came into the conversation, stating that they can help them with people who are doing genuine gold business.

“This was how Jiad and his son introduced George Slim Ganda to us adding that he is a genuine businessman and that he came from a very good family and his grandfather was the first archbishop,” Dr Sana explained.

She stated that this was how they had their first meeting with Jiad and George, and made arrangements for 16 Karats of gold for $120,000, adding that she promised Jiad’s son 20% of the profit of the business.

Dr. Sana further explained that they brought the gold and it was cross checked, but that they should travel with the gold with all documents from Freetown to Dubai, but that when they (George and herself) reached Ghana, the gold disappeared.

“George said that the Immigration Office in Ghana has confiscated the gold, because they need to have another document. I had to pay for George to come take the document back in Sierra Leone,” she noted.

She said that she called Jiad and Jiad sent someone to Ghana, whom he said will help her, and that was how Banja Tarrawally was introduced to her as the brother of Jiad.

When we contacted Jiad Swaid at his Wilberforce Street Office, he denied the allegation linking him directly about the business, rather, he implicated his 21yrs old son, Hady.

He said that his son, out of exuberance, decided to help the US-Indian Lady, but that the woman decided to blackmail them, noting that the woman even owed them $18,000 that they loaned her.

Documents in our possession, including WhatsApp exchanges and audios, revealed that Jiad Swaid is implicated in the deal.

In our next edition, we will bring out documentary evidence linking Jiad Swaid, his son, George and another man known as Bajah.
