British actress, Emaa Hussen has been charged in Australia for attempting to import nearly $300 million worth of methamphetamine into the country from Ghana. In April 2026, border officers at Sydney`s Port Botany X-rayed two containers from Ghana labeled as charcoal and found 320 kilograms of methamphetamine inside.
It value at a $296 million. Emaa Hussen, known for his roles in EastEnders spin-off E20 and the film Redemption, allegedly accused of playing a role in a transnational drug- smuggling scheme, assisted in unpacking before her arrest at a Blacktown home. Along with an Adelaide couple, all three face charges.
With Hussen denied bail and up to life in prison, the case highlights a West Africa crime network, raising questions in Ghana about port security at Tema.
The case is being handled by Australia authorities as investigations continue into the wider networking behind the alleged importation.
