Former Twens Member Henry Gyan Lands On US Worst Of The Worst Criminal Aliens List

According to a report by Ghbase News on Tuesday October 13, 2026, former Twens music group member and businessman Henry Gyan, who is also known as the partner of Snapchat influencer Beverly Konadu, has reportedly been added to the United States Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) “Worst of the Worst” criminal aliens database.

The development was reported by Ghanaian blog The State News in a post shared on X on Sunday, October 11, 2026.

According to the report, Gyan’s profile has been included in the database, which identifies individuals with criminal records and provides details about their alleged or established offences and arrests.

Information contained in the listing identifies wire fraud and identity theft as the offences associated with Gyan. The database also records Fort Dix in New Jersey as the location of his arrest.

The development has brought renewed attention to the businessman, who previously gained recognition through his association with the Ghanaian music group Twens before establishing himself in business.

His relationship with Beverly Konadu, a popular Snapchat influencer, has also made him a subject of public interest among some Ghanaian social media users.

However, the reported inclusion in the database follows a criminal case that had already resulted in a prison sentence and a substantial financial restitution order in the United States.

On June 29, 2023, a US federal court sentenced Gyan to 81 months in prison over his involvement in a fraud and money-laundering scheme. The court also ordered him to pay more than $4 million in restitution.

The sentence, which amounts to six years and nine months, reflected the seriousness of the offences addressed in the federal case. The restitution order also required him to repay more than $4 million in connection with the case.

Wire fraud generally involves the use of electronic communications or interstate communication systems to carry out fraudulent activities, while identity theft involves the unauthorised use of another person’s identifying information.

Both offences can attract significant penalties under US federal law, depending on the circumstances and the extent of the criminal conduct.

The DHS database listing has now placed Gyan’s name within a category of individuals identified by the department as having serious criminal histories.

Nevertheless, the reported database entry should be distinguished from the underlying court proceedings, which resulted in his prison sentence and restitution order in 2023.

The latest development is likely to generate further discussion in Ghana, particularly because of Gyan’s previous involvement in the entertainment industry and his connection to Beverly Konadu.

For now, the information available in the report centres on his reported addition to the DHS database, the offences identified in the listing, his arrest location and the sentence imposed by the US federal court.

Further details about the circumstances surrounding the database update, including when Gyan was added and whether the listing reflects any subsequent developments in his legal status, were not provided in the report by The State News.
