Colin Powell Signed Minister's Extradition Paper

The Ghana government has received an extradition request from the USA requesting that Deputy Minister of Finance, Mrs. Grace Colemen be handed over to the US authorities to face charges in that country. She is wanted by US Immigration Service after been indicted by a Maryland Court for sending a Ghanaian woman to the US illegally.

The letter, written by the State Department, was signed by Secretary of State Colin Powell himself.

The government is yet to confirm receiving the letter.
