Police in Ho have arrested three people suspected of stealing Ghana Telecom cables worth 24 million cedis at Akoefe Avenui near Ho.
The suspects are Kudzo Tepe, 22, Raymond Amesu, 22, and Afenyo Drah, 19, all from Akoefe Avenui.
Police Inspector Joy Afagbedzi in charge of Public Affairs in the Volta Region told the Ghana News Agency that on October 12, Togbe Aklamanu Kodzo Dei IV, Chief of Akoefe Avenui, received information that two young men were spotted carrying cables at the outskirt of the town.
He said an informant trailed the suspects to their houses where they hid the cables.
Inspector Afagbedzi said the chief summoned the two suspects who confessed stealing the cables and led the chief and a search party to retrieve the cables.
He said the two were handed over to the police and investigations led to the arrest of the third suspect, Afenyo Drah, alleged to have climbed the poles to cut the cables.
