George Adusu, 36, and his accomplice, Raphael Hevi, 35, both traders have been arrested by the Hohoe Police for dealing in fake currencies. Mr Kofi Adei-Akyeampong, Hohoe Divisional Police Commander, who briefed the Ghana News Agency on the incident said Adusu was arrested at Hohoe on an Accra-bound Tata Bus after using the fake notes to buy bunches of plantain worth GH¢50.00 from Ms Monica Klu, a trader at Nsuta Junction near Kadjebi in the Volta Region. He said Ms Klu who only noticed the invalidity of the note after the transaction, beckoned a taxi to trail the bus en route to Accra via Hohoe, and reported the incident to the Hohoe Police. Mr Adei-Akyeampong said Adusu was identified and a search on him revealed two more of the fake GH¢50.00 note with the same serial number VB 0352416, stashed in his back pocket. He said another complainant identified Adusu as having bought plantain worth GH¢10.00 with a fake GH¢50.00 and for which he received a change of GH¢40.00. A third complainant, according to the Divisional Commander, alleged that Adusu bought GH¢400.00 worth of yam from him and paid him with eight of the GH¢50.00 fake notes, with the same serial numbers. Mr Adei-Akyeampong said a third complainant noticed the illegal notes only after spending GH¢105.00. Adusu, who admitted the crime, mentioned Hevi as having given him the fake notes, leading to his arrest at Krobo Odumase. Some fake notes in the GH¢50.00 denomination with same serial numbers were found on Hevi after a search. According to Mr Adei-Akyeampong, the suspects would be arraigned in court soon. Source: GNA
