Three individuals were arrested on Thursday, October 1, 2026, for allegedly flying drones over the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) headquarters in Accra, Ghana, according to prosecutors. The drone flights occurred while EOCO was investigating Manhyia South MP Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah, who is accused of unauthorised financial transactions and misappropriation of public funds.
The arrested suspects, including a woman, are cooperating with investigators to identify who operated the drones and the purpose behind the flights. EOCO recently obtained an arrest warrant for Mr. Awuah after he declined to cooperate with the agency's inquiries. The identities of the suspects and whether any charges have been filed remain undisclosed.
