The vehicle, with registration number WT 591-20, was intercepted at the Mpeasem Axle Load Station during a police operation led by Chief Inspector Abraham Bansah.
According to police sources, the suspects, including the 34-year-old driver of the truck, were transporting the parcels believed to be Indian hemp from the Central Region towards Nzema in the Western Region.
