The Eastern North Regional Police Command has arrested three persons and seized suspected narcotic drugs and ammunition following an intelligence-led operation at Kwahu Nkwatia in the Eastern Region.
The operation, conducted on Tuesday, December 16, 2025, targeted identified drug peddling locations and criminal hideouts within Nkwatia Township and nearby communities.
At Kwayeano, a suburb of Nkwatia, police carried out a cordon-and-search exercise which led to the retrieval of forty-six wraps of dried leaves suspected to be narcotic drugs.
The team later moved to an estate near the Nkwatia SDA School, where two suspects, Kwame Asomani, aged 27, and Kwasi Dwamena, aged 25, were arrested. The suspects were found in possession of quantities of dried leaves believed to be narcotic substances.
In a separate operation at Aduamoah, police arrested a third suspect, Kwadwo Ofori, aged 45, for allegedly possessing ten rounds of BB ammunition without lawful authority.
All three suspects are currently in police custody, assisting with investigations. The recovered items have been secured and are undergoing forensic analysis.
The Eastern North Regional Police Command says investigations are ongoing, and the suspects will be arraigned before court once investigations are concluded.
