The Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC) has apprehended three individuals suspected of being associated with the Dutch fugitive known as "Bolle Jos" and his network in Ghana.

The Commission stated that the three suspects are presently in its custody and are helping investigators determine their alleged roles in the illicit operation. On September 14, 2026, NACOC released a statement detailing the arrests as part of their initiative to deter Ghana from serving as a safe haven, transit point, or operational base for international drug trafficking organizations.
The Commission emphasized its commitment to collaborate with both local and international law enforcement agencies to dismantle the people, finances, and infrastructure supporting the unlawful drug trade, assuring that the rights and legal protections of all individuals under investigation would be upheld. Jos Leijdekkers, also known as "Bolle Jos," is a Dutch fugitive who has been implicated in international drug trafficking activities.
