The Ashanti regional police command has arrested four gun-wielding criminals who allegedly attacked and robbed people at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST).

One of the suspects Adbul Sadick Dery, has been identified by his victims.

Deputy Ashanti regional commander (ACP) Kwaku Osei Ampofo-Duku gave the names of the other suspects as Abdul Rashid, Mohammed Ridwann and Peter Pebilla.

The gang is said to have raided a hostel, Paradise Lodge at Ayeduase and robbed an employee and guests of their cash and mobile phones on June 20, after robbing the Teaching Assistant and a student at KNUST on the same day.

According to ACP Ampofo-Duku their arrest followed a tip off and this came barely 24 hours after the separate robbery attacks.

He has therefore urged the formation of neighbourhood watch committees to support the police to fight crime in the region.
