A 58-year-old man from Ghana who intended to visit Canada for 17 days will stay longer in the country–in prison for the possession of child porn.
The man, Thomas Aboagye Acheampong accepted responsibility for child pornography found on his cellphone as he entered the country.
He was arrested at Halifax Stanfield International Airport after arriving on an Air Canada flight from London.
A Border Services Agency officer was not satisfied with answers Acheampong gave him when he asked how long was he going to be in the country for–which led to a re-examination.
During the second examination, border officer discovered three videos on Acheampong’s cellphone showing children having sex with one another.
