A Kumasi circuit court has remanded two men into police custody. They are accused of possessing illegal firearms. The men did not have the proper authorization for the weapons.
A prosecutor stated the individuals will remain in custody. This allows time for further police investigations. The court will hear their case again at a later date.
The specific types of firearms were not detailed. The location within Kumasi where the arrest occurred was also not immediately known. This action aligns with efforts to control illegal weapons.
Ghanaian law strictly regulates firearm ownership. Individuals need permits to possess most types of guns. Unlicensed possession can lead to severe penalties.
The court's decision ensures public safety. It also allows the police to gather more evidence. The judicial process will continue as investigations unfold.
