The paper in a front page headline: "Fake documents used to clear goods at port...Church involved", says it has exposed a syndicate which uses false documents to clear relief goods at the Tema Port and sell them. The Voice says at the heart of the syndicate is Wilhem Janzen and one ex-police, Reverend Pastor S.K. Osei. The paper's sources alleged that the key man in the deal is 'pastor' Wilhem Janzen, who occasionally travels outside Ghana, purchases goods and ships them to the country and declares them to be charities which do not attract duties. According to the Voice, when the goods arrive, a fake certificate of recognition for voluntary organisations is presented at the port to facilitate the clearance of the items free of charge. The sources say through this deal, millions of cedis are diverted, adding that some of the containers involved in the deal are currently sitting at the port awaiting clearance. The Voice calls on the Customs, Excise and Preventive Service (CEPS) to investigate the alleged deal.
