52-year-old man arrested with 37 parcels of suspected Indian hemp

A 52-year-old man, Ibrahim Saani, was arrested by the Tema Regional Police Command with 37 parcels of suspected Indian hemp, according to a police statement. The arrest took place on Sunday, October 25, 2026, around 7:00 p.m. at New York, near Airport Junction. Police were alerted to an operation by a team acting on intelligence and discovered a bag containing the 37 parcels along with a crusher.

The arrested individual was taken to the police station for further investigation. Preliminary investigations suggest that Saani may have been involved in the distribution of suspected narcotic substances in New York and the surrounding areas. Police also claim that Saani allegedly pretends to be mentally unwell to conceal his illicit activities.

The retrieved substances will undergo forensic examination to determine their nature and aid in the investigation of potential accomplices. Any identified accomplices will be arraigned once the investigation is complete.
