9 armed robbers arrested for forex bureaux robberies

This was revealed by the Inspector General of Police, David Asante Apeatu when he addressed a forum organized by the American Chamber of Commerce.

He said, "I can assure you that just yesterday [Monday], we arrested about nine people who have all confessed to the robberies on the Spintex road. This you did not know but this is what we have done on the back end and we have results.”

The Ghana Forex Bureaux Association have recently called for enough security to curb the incessant attacks on their members within this year alone.

This year alone, over 20 forex bureaux have so far been attacked by armed robbers in Accra and Tema in the Greater Accra Region.

The IGP gave some assurance when he said, "the investigations that we do after robbery cases may not be known to you but in the back-end, we do a lot”.
