Abandoned Aputuogya Vehicle Was Used In Mpohor Gold Shop Robbery- Police
The Ghana Police Service has unravelled the links between an abandoned vehicle near the Aputuoagya–Bekwai road and the recent Mpohor gold shop robbery incident.
According to the police, the suspicious white Toyota Sienta intercepted by the Kuntanase District police patrol team was used in the robbery.
“Two men who were standing by the vehicle fled into the bush upon seeing the approaching police patrol team.”
A thorough search of the vehicle uncovered an AK-47 assault rifle, a locally manufactured firearm, two AK-47 magazines loaded with 30 rounds of ammunition each, additional packets of ammunition, cowrie shells, a Huawei smartphone, identity documents, and some clothing items.
“A careful examination of the recovered exhibits against the CCTV footage of the Mpohor robbery revealed a striking resemblance between the clothing items (hooded tops) and the Wellington boots that were used during the robbery.”
According to the police, the recovery of these items marks a significant step in the ongoing investigation and manhunt for the suspects.
The Police Administration has since commended the Kuntanase District patrol team for their dedication to duty.
“The investigation team continues to examine other exhibits and follow possible leads, while security operations have been intensified across the country to get the perpetrators arrested and brought to justice.”
