In a major breakthrough, the Ghana Police in Kumasi intercepted a robbery plot, arresting four suspects in possession of weapons and ammunition on October 13, 2024. Acting on a tip-off, the police stopped the suspects who were traveling from Kumasi to Konongo. Among those arrested was a Nigerian national. Upon searching their vehicle, law enforcement found two AK-47 rifles, three magazines, and 86 rounds of ammunition concealed inside.

The police operation was hailed as a significant achievement in curbing crime in the Ashanti Region. The swift response and careful coordination by the authorities likely averted a major robbery or worse, as the suspects were clearly well-armed. All four individuals are now in custody, and investigations are ongoing to determine if they are linked to other criminal activities.

This successful intervention highlights the continued vigilance of Ghanaian law enforcement in combating organized crime and protecting citizens. The public has been encouraged to provide any additional information that could aid the investigation.

Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story as police conduct further investigations into the motives and networks behind the attempted robbery.
