120 individuals, including six women, have been taken into custody as part of a police operation to crack down on illegal drug sellers and criminal groups in the East Legon area.
After being apprehended, the suspects were brought to the East Legon Police Station for screening in order to determine which ones were linked to particular crimes and which ones might be involved in drug trafficking.
According to a police report, “the operation was led by ACP Saviour Ahiamadi and supported by other senior officers, including DSP Malaika-Jibril Alhassan, DSP Richard Beriko, ASP Afram, and ASP Sarpong, all from Police Headquarters, as well as ASP Imoro from the Accra Region.”
Personnel from the Police Intelligence Directorate, the Criminal Investigations Department, the National Operations Directorate, and the regional commands in Accra and East Legon, among others, collaborated to conduct the exercise.
