Kojo Oppong Nkrumah <\/strong><\/p>\n

THE NATIONAL Security has claimed
\nresponsibility for the arrests of some Indians and
\nGhanaians in Kumasi.<\/p>\n

About four Indians and two Ghanaians were
\nreportedly arrested at their home at Ahodwo, a suburb of Kumasi, on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Initially, there were reports that, perhaps,
\nthe victims had been kidnapped by some fake National Security officials.<\/p>\n

But Information Minister Kojo Oppong Nkrumah
\nhas said the National Security carried out the arrest in Kumasi.<\/p>\n

He has, therefore, allayed the fears of Kumasi
\nresidents, who were apprehensive that it was another case of kidnapping. According
\nto him, the National Security, per information reaching him, had a court order
\nto effect an arrest.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe National Security has claimed
\nresponsibility for the arrests of some Indians in Kumasi, so it is not
\nkidnapping. According to the National Security, the suspects were engaging in
\nillegal gold business, hence their arrest,\u201d he pointed out.<\/p>\n

Mr. Oppong-Nkrumah said the National Security
\nwas in the process of sending the suspects to court soon.<\/p>\n

Addressing journalists during a meet-the-press
\nevent in Kumasi, he reiterated that it was not a kidnapping case.<\/p>\n
