The Minister for Lands and Natural Resources has ordered the arrest of two Americans filming themselves in Ghana, as they engaged in illegal small scale mining in Romaso, in the Ashanti Region.
The reality documentary dubbed “Jungle Gold” has become a popular TV series on the Discovery Channel on DSTV.
It depicts severe brutalities meted out to farmers in the remote community by the illegal miners from the US state of Utah.
In one of the scenes, a local Ghanaian farmer who protested the destruction of his cocoa farm, is seen being strangled till he passed out by one of the Americans.
