The police have arrested several individuals operating as land guards in the Greater Accra Region. These suspects are accused of demanding money from people involved in property development.
The arrests were made during an operation by the Ghana Police Service. Authorities confirm that the group allegedly extorted funds from developers.
During the operation, the police seized multiple weapons. The exact number and type of weapons are not yet specified but are considered evidence.
The individuals are expected to face charges related to extortion and potentially illegal possession of weapons. Legal proceedings will follow the official investigation.
This action by the police aims to curb the illegal activities of land guards, which can disrupt development projects and create fear in communities.
The ongoing investigation by the Ghana Police Service seeks to identify any other individuals involved in similar criminal activities.
