Authorities have arrested a pastor and multiple other people in the Greater Accra Region. They are accused of engaging in landguard activities.
These individuals allegedly harassed landowners and trespassed on properties.
The Ghana Police Service is leading the investigation into these alleged activities.
The arrests aim to curb the rising problem of land disputes and illegal land acquisition in the region.
Landguard activities involve individuals or groups who unlawfully claim ownership of land and use intimidation or force to dispossess rightful owners.

Further details on the number of suspects and specific properties involved are expected as the investigation progresses.
The police are committed to ensuring the rule of law prevails in land matters.
