Kwabena Obeng, a farmer, who allegedly hid quantities of narcotic drugs in a bedroom and toilet at Akim Aboabo in the Birim Central Municipality, has been arrested by the Akim Oda police.<\/p>\n

Kwabena Obeng, alias \u201cBetter\u201d, was said to be part of a stealing syndicate, who also terrorized residents and broke into shops in the area.<\/p>\n

He was also said to be involved in another case with the accomplice, Yaw Anokye alias \u201cAnointing\u201d, and had been remanded on two counts of robbery and possessing narcotic drug.<\/p>\n

Inspector Kwaku Appiah told the GNA at Akim Swedru that on February 16, the Akim Oda police had a tip-off about the illegal activities of Obeng and moved to the scene at Akim Aboabo.<\/p>\n

He said the police with a search warrant conducted a thorough search of the house where a large quantity of different drugs concealed in his bedroom and behind the toilet were retrieved.<\/p>\n

Inspector Appiah listed the concealed items to include 74 substances suspected to be heroin, 311 wrappers of a whitish substance suspected to be cocaine and quantity of dried leaves suspected to be Indian hemp.<\/p>\n

He said Obeng was then arrested with the suspected drugs in his possession which during interrogation, he claimed ownership.<\/p>\n

He said the accused had since been prosecuted after he appeared before the Akim Swedru Circuit Court, presided over by Mr Yaw Atta Sampong.<\/p>\n

He pleaded not guilty to possessing narcotic drugs and was remanded, to reappear on March 12.<\/p>\n
