The Ghana Police Service has arrested three suspects in connection with the possession of narcotic drugs and involvement in prohibited drug-related activities within the Accra metropolis.
In a statement issued by the Ghana Police Service, intelligence gathered on 10th April 2026 indicated that a group of individuals were planning to sell suspected narcotic substances at Dzorwulu in Accra, prompting a surveillance operation.
On 11th April 2026, police officers moved into the area and arrested two suspects, identified as Bright Ayivor and Ifeanyi Ijeoba.
They were found in possession of twenty-two compressed substances suspected to be cocaine, allegedly prepared for sale to a prospective buyer.
Further interrogation led to the identification of a third suspect, Kwabena Botwe, described as a key figure in the drug operation.
A follow-up surveillance operation at Caprice resulted in his arrest during a planned transaction involving proceeds from the suspected drug trade.
The suspect later led police to his residence at Greda Estates, where a search uncovered GH¢400,000 and a counting machine.
During the operation, he allegedly attempted to bribe officers with an additional GH¢420,000, which has been retained as evidence.
All three suspects are currently in police custody assisting investigations and are expected to be put before the court.
