According to police, the victim, Aliu Mohammed, was robbed of gold, cash, a mobile phone, a pump-action gun, and his Toyota Camry Spider (GR 8009-15) during the attack.
Addressing the media in Bekwai on Friday, December 12, Regional Commander DCOP Joseph Hammond Nyaaba said officers responded promptly after receiving reports of the robbery.
The victim’s abandoned vehicle was traced to Ofoase Kokoben township, but the robbers had fled prior to police arrival.
“Further intelligence gathering led to the arrest of two suspects, Salifu Adamu (Scorpion) and Abdul Latif (Bullet), at the Tweapease Police checkpoint around 6 p.m. on December 9,” DCOP Nyaaba explained.
He added that continued investigations and interrogations resulted in the arrest of the remaining two suspects, Samed Abdulai and Ali Mustapha, at Tweapease at 8 a.m. on December 10, 2025.
The Regional Commander cautioned criminals to refrain from unlawful activities, stressing that law enforcement is committed to ensuring safety and security in the region.
“We urge the public to support the police to ensure a peaceful and crime-free Christmas,” DCOP Nyaaba added.
The arrested suspects are expected to face charges related to armed robbery, while police investigations continue to recover stolen items and identify any additional accomplices.
