The Konongo Traditional Council in the Ashanti Region has handed over Mr.
Kwabena Amofa, popularly known as Alhaji, to the police for questioning and possible prosecution over his alleged involvement in illegal mining activities in the Asante Akyem Central Municipality.
Mr.
Amofa is suspected to be a key figure behind the rising galamsey operations in Konongo, which have caused significant environmental degradation, particularly the destruction of water bodies and farmlands.
