Two armed robbers who were arrested by the police in Kumasi in the Ashanti Region have been sentenced to 20 years of imprisonment each for robbery offences.
The two, Emeka Opara and Samuel Kalo, were arrested on May 30, 2022, following their attack on a victim at ECOBANK, Abrepo Junction, in the region.
They succeeded in bolting with a bag containing an amount of GH₵30,000.00 from the robbery.
However, the Police later retrieve the amount and successfully prosecuted the suspects–now convicts.
“Because the two have been duly convicted and are no longer suspects, we have displayed their images in line with our new standard operating procedure”
“Any member of the public who can recognise any of them in connection with other crimes should kindly contact the nearest police station for further action,” a police statement said.
