Police in the Western Central Region have arrested Daniel Yeboah after intercepting 66 compressed parcels suspected to be Indian hemp at a snap checkpoint near Samreboi.

According to police, the suspect claimed he was hired by a woman in Wenchi to deliver the packages to Mumuni Camp, near Samreboi, for a fee of GH₵5,000.

Authorities have launched an active search for the woman involved and are urging the public to come forward with any useful information.

Yeboah is expected to appear in court on Monday, August 4, as investigations continue.
