Kwahu Mpraeso, Ghana – The Eastern North Police Command has arrested two women in connection with a major drug seizure operation that led to the discovery of 1,650 slabs of suspected Indian hemp in their residence at Nkawkaw Ampekrom.

The operation, carried out on Tuesday, May 13, 2025, followed months of intelligence gathering and surveillance, according to Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCOP) Isaac Kwadwo Asante, the Regional Police Commander.

The suspects, identified as Hawa Ibrahim, a 40-year-old landlady, and Latifa Adams, aged 30, were apprehended after officers acted on a tip-off and executed a thorough search of their compound. The search uncovered 24 large bags packed with the compressed substance believed to be cannabis.

“This is a significant breakthrough. The Eastern North Police Command remains resolute in its fight against narcotics trafficking,” he said.

Both suspects are currently in police custody and are said to be cooperating with investigators. They are expected to be arraigned before court in the coming days to face charges related to possession, trafficking, and distribution of illegal narcotics.

Authorities say further investigations are ongoing to determine whether the operation is linked to a wider network of drug distribution across the Eastern Region and beyond.
