The Bono Regional Police Command has arrestedQ two men after discovering 41 compressed slabs of substances suspected to be cannabis in a commercial vehicle at the Twumasikrom checkpoint on the Sunyani-Berekum highway.
The suspects, identified as Duah Akwasi Moses, 33, the driver, and Kofi Antwi Bosiako, 42, his mate, were arrested on November 8, 2026, at about 7:00 a.m.
According to the Police, the two were travelling towards Sampa in the Jaman North District aboard a white and red Kia Grand Bus with registration number AS-2415-26 when officers stopped and searched the vehicle.
