A police swoop at a popular ghetto
in Ashaiman, Asenso Bar, on Thursday evening led to the seizure of 75 pieces of
toffees suspected to have been laced with weed.
The candies which are brown in
colour and round were packaged in transparent polythenes.
About 241 wrappers of substances
suspected to be Indian hemp in a polythene bag were also recovered.
An alleged notorious drug peddler,
Ali Zakari, aged 39, who was said to be selling the siezed items has also been
arrested. Two alleged smokers, Emmanuel Ekuadzi, 27 and Abraham Sackey, 23
were also arrested at the ghetto.
Several mobile phones were also
found on Ekuadzi and Sackey.
Others however managed to
escape following an alarm raised by one of the members of the ghetto about the
presence of the police in the area.
Confirming the incident to Adom
News, the Ashaiman District Police commander, DSP Seth Tay said investigation
is ongoing and the suspects will be processed for court.
Some residents of Ashaiman who
expressed shock at the incident pleaded with the police help jail the arrested
suspects since their activities put children in danger
