Celebrity and social media influencer Hajia4Real, whose real name is Mona Faiz Montrage, has recently had a breakthrough in her long legal battle in the US. The court case is the result of a six-count indictment against her.
New reports state that she has pleaded guilty for her involvement in a series of high-value romance scams. The influencer could face up to five years in prison and will also be required to forfeit over two million dollars.
Mona’s legal troubles began in November of 2022 when she was arrested and later extradited to the US for trial. After almost two years of court battle, Mona Faiz Montrage reportedly admitted to her part in the crime.
According to the report by Inner City Press, her admission was for conspiracy to receive stolen money. This action carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison. Additionally, she has agreed to pay a forfeiture of over 2 million dollars, as well as make restitution in the same amount.
The news of her guilty plea and the potential prison sentencing has sparked varied reactions from netizens. Several people expressed surprise and disbelief at the turn of events.
Mona’s guilty plea may have come as a shock, considering that she is part of the cast for a new reality TV show called “GH Queens.” The show also features other celebrities like Efia Odo and Shatta Michy.
