The Minister for the Interior, Mubarak Mohammed Muntaka, has alleged that suspected cannabis traffickers are using ambulances and bullion vans to transport the substance. According to Mr Muntaka, security agencies have received intelligence indicating that vehicles associated with legitimate services are being used to conceal and transport cannabis. He expressed concern about a casual attitude towards cannabis cultivation in some communities. The government is responding through the destruction of cannabis farms, arrests and intelligence-led operations. Mr Muntaka recounted an operation where dried cannabis was found concealed in a shrine. He also alleged that some individuals were exploiting ambulances to transport cannabis instead of patients. Furthermore, he alleged that bullion vans used to transport money for the Bank of Ghana were also being used to move cannabis. The Minister stated that the government would continue to pursue those involved through farm destruction, arrests and intelligence-led operations.
