National Security recently executed a significant operation, uncovering a substantial amount of U.S. dollars and Ghana cedis, including counterfeit currency, hidden inside twelve 20-foot shipping containers.
The containers were traced to a warehouse in Sapeiman, located in the Ga South Municipality, where a special operation was carried out following a tip-off.
The hidden funds, mainly in the form of U.S. dollar bundles, were found within wooden boxes filled with cement. During the operation, additional boxes were opened, revealing more cash concealed in compartments barricaded with plywood and sealed with charcoal.
While two containers remain unaccounted for, state security trackers are actively searching for them.
In addition, authorities have launched a manhunt for four suspects, including a ringleader identified only as Alhaji. The warehouse search also yielded more concerning findings, such as boxes containing metals believed to be gold bars, counterfeit Ghanaian cedi notes in ?50 and ?100 denominations, and fake Ghana Army uniforms and boots.
