The Northern Regional Police Command has arrested three individuals for unlawful possession of restricted pharmaceutical drugs and a firearm near Diare, a suburb of Savelugu, in the Northern Region.
The suspects-Jabuni S Mohammed, Alidu Abdul Samed, and Abdul Aziz-were apprehended on Sunday, August 3, 2025, during a routine night patrol by police along the Tamale-Bolgatanga highway.
According to police reports, Jabuni, who was driving a Nissan Hardbody pick-up with registration number GN 2812-20, failed to stop at a checkpoint at Diare, prompting officers to give chase.
He later abandoned the vehicle and attempted to flee into nearby bushes but was quickly arrested.
