Police link Labone bank robbery suspects to earlier attacks on customers
The Ghana Police Service has linked a suspected robbery syndicate whose planned attack on banks at Labone in Accra was foiled to at least two earlier attacks on bank customers in Tema and Achimota.
The surveillance operation culminated on August 13 when police received information that members of the group had been spotted at a bank on Spintex Road and were heading towards Labone and Cantonments.
Police investigations linked the group to an incident at Agbamaame in Tema Community 2 on May 17, where a woman was allegedly robbed of GH¢50,000 after withdrawing the money from a bank.
