The Ghana Police Service has arrested two suspects and rescued multiple victims from what it described as organised cybercrime activities in Tema.
The intelligence-led operation also led to the disruption of ongoing cyber fraud schemes.
In a statement released on February 12, the police said the operation was initiated on the instructions of the Inspector General of Police, Christian Tetteh Yohuno.
A combined team from the Special Operations Unit and personnel from the Okpoi-Gono District Headquarters, led by ASP Grace Owusua Gyan, carried out the exercise on February 2, 2026.
“Acting on the instructions of the Inspector General of Police, Christian Tetteh Yohuno, a combined team from the Special Operations Unit and personnel from the Okpoi-Gono District Headquarters… coordinated an intelligence-led operation,” the statement said.
“The mission was focused on rescuing kidnapped victims, apprehending the suspects and disrupting ongoing cyber fraud activities.”
The suspects, identified as Robinson Endurance and Derrick Glory, were arrested at Devtraco Estate, Community 25, without resistance.
The operation led to the rescue of 10 victims who had allegedly been illegally confined and forced to engage in cybercrime-related activities. Photographs of the suspects, victims and recovered exhibits were documented for records and prosecution.
The Okpoi-Gono District Police Command assured the public that investigations are ongoing and that further updates on the prosecution of the suspects will be communicated in due course.
