National Security operatives have arrested twelve Chinese nationals and a Ghanaian in connection with the disappearance of Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) containers at the Tema Port.
The suspects, linked to two aluminum smelting companies in Shai Hills, were apprehended on Thursday during an intelligence-led operation.
Investigators traced cables, believed to be part of the missing consignment, to an aluminum smelter owned by the Chinese nationals, located opposite the Shai Hills Game Reserve.
Reports indicate that the cables were being melted into aluminum bars for export.
The operation marks a significant breakthrough in the investigation into the missing ECG containers, which contained essential electrical equipment.
Meanwhile, National Security has launched a manhunt for another Chinese national who remains at large.
Authorities have pledged to bring all those involved to justice as investigations continue to unravel the full extent of the operation.
