Two arrested for concealing 118 bags of cocoa in truck carrying plantain

The task force, comprising personnel from the Ghana Police Service, Ghana Immigration Service, Defence Intelligence, the National Security/Signal Bureau and the Customs Division of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA), mounted an operation along the border road.

A multi-agency security team led by the Bunkpurugu Immigration Command has intercepted 118 bags of cocoa beans concealed beneath a load of plantains along the Bunkpurugu border road.

Although the truck appeared to be transporting plantains, officers conducted a thorough search at the Customs office and discovered 118 bags of cocoa beans concealed beneath the plantains.
