On Thursday, October 29, 2026, the Police in Accra arrested a 40-year-old man named Roger Borbobli at the VIP Bus Terminal at Kwame Nkrumah Circle.

A police statement on Facebook explained that loading boys at the terminal noticed an unusual odor emanating from the suitcases and alerted the authorities.
Police officers quickly arrived, apprehended Borbobli, and seized the three suitcases containing 91 parcels of compressed dried leaves, which they suspected to be Indian hemp.
