Superintendent Awu said he informed the patrol team who met the informant at Adjei Kojo, a suburb of Ashaiman and helped him to send the items to the police station at 0100 hours on March 25 after advising him to pay for the items.
The informant led the police to the Borteyman Affordable Housing Project site where Mensah was arrested and admitted selling the items to him.
Mensah named Godslove and Ajato as his accomplice during interrogation stating that some of the items were stolen from the Bortianor Affordable Housing site.
