The Ashanti regional police command has arrested five Nigerians and one Ghanaian for their alleged involvement in the attack and robbery of customers in some banks in Kumasi.

Regional police commander, DCOP Emmanuel Teye Cudjoe, says the suspects follow their victims after withdrawing large sums of money from a financial institution and breaking into their vehicles to rob.

Their operations have been going on for the past month.

Two suspects were identified from police intelligence gathering, supported by footage from the intelligence video surveillance (IVS) system monitored at the police emergency command center.

A gold-coloured Toyota Highlander with registration number GT 2471-14 and a black Toyota Highlander with registration number GX 7124-12 were confirmed to be used for the robbery. Both vehicles were found to bear fake license plates.

According to the police commander, on Thursday, 19th June, 2025, around 10am, the police successfully arrested three other suspects; Russell Ekenze, 29 years, a taxi driver, Francis Friday, 49 years, and Linus Agwazie, a 51-year-old trader.

DCOP Teye Cudjoe, in his press briefing, said that during their interrogation, the suspects confessed to being part of a large criminal syndicate.

“They admitted to carrying out similar thefts at several locations within Kumasi, including Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH), Mayanka, Asokwa, Kumasi Central Mosque, ShopRite and Georgia Hotel area.

They also named other members of the syndicate as Cosmas Maduabuchukwu, Ezuchukwu, C.J , DD and Lele,” he said.

He added that Cosmas Maduabuchukwu sustained gunshot wounds during an attempted arrest and managed to flee.

Six suspects are currently in police custody and the two vehicles used by the syndicate have been impounded. A manhunt is underway to arrest Cosmos Maduabuchukwu and other accomplices still at large.

“Preliminary findings indicate that all members of the syndicate are Nigerian nationals with the exception of DD who is a Ghanaian and they have been arranged before the court for lawful remand,” said the police.

The police command has assured the public of its commitment to ensure the safety and security of all residents in the region.
