4 Cold Store Thieves Nabbed

PERSONNEL
FROM the Community One District Police Headquarters have rounded up four
persons who reportedly burgled African Star Cold Store at the Tema Heavy
Industrial Area.

Names of the
suspects were given as Mohammed Latif, Robert Atibila, Eric Opoku and Kojo Mensah.

Four others,
including a female, are at large and police have mounted a manhunt for their
arrests.

Information
gathered by DAILY GUIDE indicated that the suspects made a frivolous case
against two security men at the cold store that they had stolen their
motorbikes, and when the police invited the security men for questioning, the
suspects took advantage of their absence to ransack the cold store.

Unfortunately
for them, the police read through their tricks and in the course of the
‘operation’, the law enforcement agents pounced on them.

Chief
Superintendent Stephen Kwakye told DAILY GUIDE that on November 9, 2019,
while the team was on patrol, they had intelligence that the suspects conspired
to break into the cold store.

“The
suspects were loading cartons of fish into two Man Diesel trucks with registration numbers GN 6328-15 and GN 6388-14 when they were
caught.” He said the value of the fish the suspects were loading was over
GH¢50,000.
