The National Security operatives in Ghana have intercepted a staggering haul of counterfeit currency and suspected gold bars. The illegal stash was concealed within twelve 20-foot shipping containers, which were raided at a warehouse in Sapeiman, within the Ga South Municipality.
Acting on a tip-off, officers swooped in on the warehouse, uncovering bundles of fake US dollars hidden within wooden boxes filled with cement. The boxes were cleverly designed to avoid detection. Additionally, counterfeit Ghana cedi notes, fake Ghana Army uniforms, and boots were seized, raising concerns about potential security breaches.
The authorities have confirmed that two of the containers remain unaccounted for, prompting an intensified search to locate them. A manhunt is also underway for four individuals, including a suspected ringleader known only as Alhaji.
National Security has reassured the public that investigations are ongoing to dismantle the counterfeit operation and bring all culprits to justice. The successful raid is a testament to the agency’s vigilance and commitment to protecting Ghana’s economy and national security.
