Constituency Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Akatsi North Constituency, Abraham Ahiabu has been detained by officers of the Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) over alleged attempt to smuggle ballot papers to Togo.
A press release from the Ghana Immigration Service, said officers stationed at Hevi, an unapproved route in the Akatsi North District, intercepted three booklets of ballot papers.
Each booklet contained 1,000 ballots, translating to 3,000 ballots in total.
The interception occurred during a routine monitoring exercise by immigration officers in the Ave Havi enclave en route to Vodome in neighbouring Togo.
