The Twifo Praso District Police Command has arrested the chief of Twifu Anyinase, Nana Nkwantabisa who also doubles as the Krontihene for Twifo Traditional Area, for allegedly stealing railway metals.
The Queen mother, Nana Amoanimaa Brago III, the Abakomahene, Zongo Chief, Sariki Tahiru, and two others were all arrested for the same offense.
The suspects have been handed over to the Central North Regional Police Command for further investigation and prosecution.
Kasapa News Yaw Boagyan previously reported that some unscrupulous individuals have been consistently stealing railway lines in the area at night and selling them to scrap dealers.
The police, as part of their routine patrols, spotted the suspects on Tuesday, March 21, 2023 night busily cutting the railway metals with machines and quickly arrested them.
What is shocking to the residents is that this same Chief has always been speaking through the Community’s Information Centers condemning the stealing of railway lines and advising the youth and scrab dealers to stay away from stealing the railway lines.
According to the Central North Regional Police Commander, DCOP Teye Cudjoe the suspects who are in police custody assisting investigation will be put before the court to face the full rigors of the law.
