Two men were arrested on 26 April 2026 near Kintampo in the Bono East Region. Police found 166 parcels of dried plant material, suspected to be cannabis, in two sacks inside an unregistered Toyota Highlander.

The suspects put the street value at GH¢107,000. The report names them as Sadick Wemuah and Senbeti Karim, as printed in the source. Both were cautioned and are held while they help investigators. The vehicle and parcels were kept as evidence. Police are looking for others linked to the case, including a man known only by a nickname.

Why it matters: The material is described only as suspected cannabis. The two men are being held while police investigate, and no charge is reported.
