Former Black Sherif manager caught up in fraud probe
Shadrach Owusu, popularly known as Snap C and former manager of Ghanaian music star Black Sherif, has reportedly been detained by the Ghana Police Service in connection with an alleged fraud case involving land acquisition and construction projects.
Reports that emerged on Thursday, June 11, 2026, indicated that the businessman was taken into police custody as investigators probe claims relating to a scheme reportedly valued at approximately $1 million.
The development was first reported by social media platform CDR Africa, which alleged that authorities were examining claims that funds paid for land and construction projects were not used for their intended purpose.
According to the platform, Snap C is being investigated over allegations that projects for which significant sums of money were received were never completed.
"Shadrach Owusu (Snap C), former manager of Black Sherif, has been detained over allegations of a $1 million fraud linked to land and construction deals. Investigators say the projects were never completed and the funds may have been misused, with a probe currently ongoing," the report stated.
Further reports published by State News alleged that Snap C received substantial payments from individuals after reportedly promising to facilitate land purchases and undertake construction projects on their behalf.
Investigators are reportedly examining claims that payments totaling $950,000 and $480,000 were collected for projects that were never delivered.
"Snap C is accused of collecting large sums of money, including $950,000 and $480,000, after allegedly promising land and construction projects that were never delivered," the publication reported.
The report further alleged that investigators believe the businessman neither owned the properties involved in the transactions nor possessed the capacity to execute the projects as promised.
Authorities are also reportedly looking into allegations that portions of the funds may have been diverted for personal use instead of being applied to the projects for which they were received.
Shortly after reports of the alleged arrest surfaced, a video began circulating widely on social media, purportedly showing the moment Snap C was taken into police custody.
The footage, shared by Gossips24TV, appears to show police officers escorting the former artiste manager toward a waiting police vehicle.
In the video, Snap C is seen being led away by officers, reportedly in handcuffs, before being placed into the vehicle.
The footage has since generated widespread discussion online, with many social media users reacting to the allegations and the ongoing investigation.
At the time of publication, the Ghana Police Service had not issued a detailed statement outlining any specific charges against the businessman. Investigations into the matter were said to be ongoing.
