Upon inspection on 4 November 2024, officials discovered 53 pistols, 74 magazines, and 65 live rounds of ammunition concealed in suitcases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The operation resulted from thorough investigations conducted by the GRA\u2019s Intelligence and Preventive Units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Commissioner of Customs, Brigadier General Zibrim Ayorrogo, confirmed the development, saying, \u201cArrests have been made, and investigations are ongoing to unravel the full details of the shipment and its intended recipients.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In light of this, Mr Asante urged those involved in illegal arms smuggling to desist, warning, \u201cwhen it gets into the country, you will never know where these weapons will end.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Commenting on the current political climate and the upcoming 7 December general elections, Mr Asante stressed the need for peace elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He urged Ghanaians to ensure the country maintains the peace it currently enjoys.<path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M11
