Following Hajia4Reall’s sentencing, it has been confirmed that the Ghanaian socialite will be repatriated to Ghana once she completes her one-year prison sentence.

Her return to Ghana is to her to avoid  ICE Detention by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), a proposal to which the Assistant United States Attorney (AUSA) agreed.

More importantly, she has agreed to forfeit $2,164,758.41 and make restitution in the same amount.

What is ICE?

ICE stands for US Immigration and Customs Enforcement. It essentially is the agency that makes a custody determination.

Information on its website stated: “ICE uses its limited detention resources to detain noncitizens to secure their presence for immigration proceedings or removal from the United States — as well as those that are subject to mandatory detention, as outlined by the Immigration and Nationality Act, or those that ICE determines are a public safety or flight risk during the custody determination process.

“When a noncitizen is not subject to mandatory detention or is not deemed to be a public safety or flight risk, ICE exercises its discretion in making custody determinations to release noncitizens with conditions.

“These custody decisions are made on a case-by-case basis and after considering the totality of circumstances — primarily considering risk of flight, national security threat and risk to public safety.

“ICE also takes other factors into consideration — including when a noncitizen has a serious medical condition, is the primary caregiver of minor children, or other humanitarian considerations,” it added.
