A total of 97 suspected criminals have been arrested by the Accra regional police command.

The suspects were arrested on the 13th and 14th October 2020 for their alleged involvement in various criminal activities.

In the two-day continuous operations at Baatsona, La, Amasaman, Nungua, Korle Bu, and Dansoman, the police successfully conducted an intelligence-based swoop in some criminal hideouts.

The areas raided in Baatsona include Cambodia, Lashibi and Community 18, as well as some ghettos in Dansoman.

The police also retrieved some quantities of dried leaves suspected to be narcotic drugs, together with 20 laptops and 16 mobile phones, all suspected to be stolen items.

The arrested suspects have been detained in police custody as they await screening.

However, those found culpable will be arraigned soon.
