    A former banker based in our borough is facing charges for international money laundering. Asanta Kwaku Berko, a dual resident of the United States and Ghana, is being charged for using U.S. currency to bribe Ghanian officials to secure a power plant deal. Between 2014 and 2017, Berko and others paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to ensure a Turkish energy company won a bid to build that power plant. Berko was brought back from the United Kingdom to the U.S. in 2022 and was arrested that year. "
