The Interpol official praised Ghana’s security agencies and the FBI for their effective and collaborative efforts in recovering a stolen BMW X3 that was shipped from France to Ghana.
According to the Interpol official, the successful operation is a symbol of the strength of international cooperation in bringing down frequent stolen vehicle thefts being trafficked across borders.
The black BMW X3 was traced through a collaborative investigation between Ghanaian security authorities and Interpol after it was flagged in France as part of a crackdown on vehicle theft.
The car has since been returned to France and will be handed out to its rightful owner following standard recovery protocols.
The official made it clear that the FBI’s quick response and legal compliance made it easy for a smooth retrieval process.
This video comes amid trending public attention on stolen vehicle investigations, especially after the seizure of a yellow Lamborghini Urus belonging to Shatta Wale.
Watch the video of the Interpol official below:
While the two cases are unrelated, the coincidence in timing has triggered comparisons and raised awareness about Ghana’s growing involvement in international stolen asset tracing efforts.
In Shatta Wale’s case, the yellow Lamborghini was seized by the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) in June 2025 after it was traced to a U.S. fraud investigation involving Nana Kwabena Amuah, a Ghanaian convicted of fraud in the United States.
The Yellow Lamborghini Urus is currently being held in the custody of EOCO, pending its return to U.S. authorities.

Together, the BMW deportation and Shatta Wale’s Lamborghini brouhaha show Ghana’s increasing role in international investigations and the impact of its collaboration with foreign agencies like the FBI and Interpol.
Shatta Wale’s case sparks car theft debate
This has drawn reactions from social media users amid Shatta Wale’s ongoing case, colliding with the stolen BMW X3 deported to France.
Raising talks of how some of the luxury cars spotted in town could be stolen cars.
Some of these comments are:
_Roofman2131gh commented:
“Hmm, most of the cars some of our celebrities drive are all stolen cars, and now there’s pressure on Ghana because it’s become the hub for stolen cars.”
Doriginal source commented:
“Hajia For real has hurt Ghanaians. She brought all these eyes to Ghana.”
Mckingz94 commented:
“This is so embarrassing, fake lives.. Is it by force to own such luxurious cars in Ghana? Who put a yardstick on wealth by owning a car? Ghana used to be a nice place until greedy generations started growing into adults.”
Dawson_Blaud commented:
“Car be something you go steal and be walking about freely. You will surely be caught unless the owner wants to dash it to you.”
Samini_thekid commented:
“Soon we will be a Red flag country.”
Shatta Wale’s Lamborghini linked to US fraudster
Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that Shatta Wale is under investigation after EOCO seized his yellow Lamborghini Urus in June 2025. The car was linked to Nana Kwabena Amuah, a Ghanaian jailed in the U.S. for fraud.
EOCO confirmed he’s a person of interest and claimed he begged them to keep the seizure quiet. Shatta Wale later accused EOCO of harassment, saying armed officers raided his home and damaged his image.
