Two suspects, Abdulai Isaac and Iddrisu Kamaldeen, appeared before the Wa Circuit Court on September 14, 2026, following the seizure of 192 compressed wraps of suspected cocaine during their arrest on September 6. The suspects were apprehended in Wa for their involvement in trafficking and distributing narcotic substances in the region.

The discovery of the cocaine was made after credible intelligence led police to intercept the two men at the ESP Bus Station in Wa, where they were found with the 192 parcels of suspected cocaine. Following interrogation, Kamaldeen admitted to being a customer of Isaac. Police and officers from the Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC) collaborated on September 14 to test the substance, which subsequently tested positive for cocaine.

The two suspects have been remanded and are scheduled to reappear on October 9, 2026. The Police are continuing their investigation and pursuing leads to locate and apprehend other individuals connected to the suspected narcotic trafficking network. The Upper West Regional Police Command remains committed to protecting communities and disrupting organized criminal networks, as well as preventing the trafficking and distribution of illicit drugs within the region.
