National Security operatives have intercepted a significant haul of counterfeit money and suspected gold bars concealed within twelve 20-foot shipping containers.
Acting on a tip-off, officers raided a warehouse in Sapeiman, within the Ga South Municipality, where the illegal stash was uncovered.
Upon inspection, bundles of fake US dollars were found inside wooden boxes, which had been hidden within cement to avoid detection. Other items seized included counterfeit Ghana cedi notes, as well as fake Ghana Army uniforms and boots, raising further security concerns.
Authorities have confirmed that two of the containers remain unaccounted for, with intensified efforts underway to locate them.
Meanwhile, a manhunt has been launched for four individuals, including a suspected ringleader identified only as Alhaji. National Security has assured the public that investigations are ongoing to dismantle the operation and bring all culprits to justice.
