Three persons have been arrested in Adenta with a stolen AK-47 from Akporman-Manna Police post that was retrieved from them, OccupyGh.com reports.
The three, Frank Dogboe, Bernard Omagu Barrack and Buukari Adamu were arrested on a tip off from a vigilant citizen.
Frank was the first suspect to be arrest on August 16. He led the police to retrieve the AK-47 and 19 of the 20 rounds of stolen ammunition from Akporman-Manna Police post.
The other two were arrested with the corporation of Frank Dogboe. Bernard Omagu Barrack and Bukari Adamu, in their caution statement, admitted selling the stolen weapon to one Selasie for 5,000 cedis but received 3,000 cedis as part payment.
But the police on Thursday, August 22 put the three suspects before the Kwabenya District Magistrate Court on charges of unlawful entry and stealing.
They pleaded not guilty to the charges and have been remanded to appear again on September 4.
The disappearance of the riffle led to the interdiction of two officers, Superintendent Edward Tetteh, the Abokobi/Ayimensah District Commander and C/Inspector Christopher Bekor, the Akporman Manna station officer.
The acting IGP, who interdicted the two officers two weeks ago, further directed the Police Professional and Standard Bureau (PPSB) to investigate the conduct of the officers.
