Warrant Officer Kosi Boachie, father of one of the three suspected armed robbers arrested for an attempted robbery on Good Friday, has been interrogated by the Nima Police and referred to the military authorities for further investigations.The soldier was granted police enquiry bail on Tuesday after investigations had revealed that he did not have documents covering the Toyota Carina which the suspected armed robbers were using at the time of their arrest.It was also established that the vehicle had come under surveillance from the intelligence community when it was realized that two registration numbers, GR 9162 Q and GR 9152 Q, had been alternatively used for the vehicle since last year.Furthermore, the registration numbers were found to belong to two other vehicles, a Ford Sierra and a Mitsubishi Lancer saloon car.While the GR 9162 Q number plate was for the Ford Sierra registered in the name of Gladys Konadu of P. O. Box 19180, Accra North who bought it from Mr George Dwomoh, the GR 9152 Q number plate was registered in the name of Mr Isaac Anane of P.O. Box CT 20, Accra and house number 134/3, Osu, for the Lancer saloon car.The Nima Police last Friday picked the three suspected armed robbers near a filling station on the La-Teshie road about 5p.m., and two pistols, one of which was found to be a toy, as well as ammunition, were retrieved from them.Two of the suspects, Kwame Mpianim, 18, and Aaron Kusi Boachie, 26, alias Kofi Bolga, were said to be the sons of soldiers at the Sergeant Quarters at the Burma Camp. The other suspect is Benjamin Danso, 34.They have all been remanded in police custody by the court. The Nima Divisional Police Commander, ACP Angwubutoge Awuni, and the District Commander, ASP Aduhene Benieh, told the Daily Graphic yesterday that following the arrest of the three, the police contacted the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) to verify the status of the vehicle, a Toyota Carina.ACP Awuni said it was in the course of the verification that the two registration numbers belonging to two different vehicles came up.He said when WOI Boachie came to claim ownership of the vehicle after he had alleged that he had sent his son, Aaron, to change the plugs of the car, the police asked him to provide documents covering the vehicle.At that point, he said, WOI Boachie told the police that the vehicle belonged to his uncle who did not complete payment for the car before the owner died.ACP Awuni said after the publication of the story and the pictures of the suspects in the Daily Graphic, the police were referred to a report issued by the intelligence service in January this year about the vehicle to assist in their investigations.He said so far two different groups of people had also shown up to accuse the suspects of having robbed them last year.Source: Daily Graphic
