Shadrack Anartey, Emmanuel Agyei Donkor, Abu Ali, and Abubakar Buba were apprehended by the Konongo Divisional Taskforce while travelling in a Nissan Urvan bus with the registration number AS 4353 -15, following a tip-off.
According to a police report shared with the Ghana News Agency, a search of the bus uncovered two AK-47 rifles, three magazines, and 86 rounds of ammunition hidden in a compartment of the vehicle.
The police received information on October 13, 2024, around 1900 hours, indicating that the suspects were preparing to execute a robbery.
“The team intercepted the vehicle driven by Anartey with Donkor, Ali of Fulani extraction and Buba, a Nigerian on board,” it added.
The suspects were arrested, and the weapons were seized while the vehicle was impounded.
Anartey, Donkor, Ali, and Buba are currently assisting the police with their investigations and will soon be arraigned.
