POLICE ARREST TWO, SEIZE SUSPECTED COUNTERFEIT GTP FABRICS WORTH GH¢20 MILLION AT ADABRAKA
The Ghana Police Service has arrested two suspects and seized large quantities of assorted wax print fabrics suspected to be counterfeit GTP products in an operation at Adabraka, Accra.
The suspects, identified as Salifu Mamuda, 50, and Iddrisa Mohammed, 44, were arrested at the scene on Monday, November 9, 2026.
The operation was conducted by the IGP Special Operations Team (SOT) following intelligence that two articulated trucks, with registration numbers SMK-161-YH and T-28975-LA, suspected to have originated from Nigeria, were offloading contraband goods at a warehouse off the Kojo Thompson Highway in Adabraka.
The seized consignment, believed to have been smuggled from Nigeria, is estimated to be worth approximately GH¢20 million.
The goods have since been transported to the National Police Headquarters for further investigations.
The two suspects remain in police custody and are assisting with investigations, while efforts are underway to identify and apprehend other individuals allegedly connected to the importation and distribution of the suspected counterfeit products.
