Twenty errant motorcycle riders, five tricycle riders, and a driver have been arrested within the Kpando Municipality of the Volta Region for various road traffic offences.
This is in accordance with the Regional Police Command’s resolve to sanitise the region and rid it of lawlessness, narcotic peddling, and abuse of motorcycles and tricycles.
The 20 motorcycles, 1 tricycle, and an unregistered Hyundai Accent vehicle involved have been impounded, stated a police communique.
The Kpando Police has initiated prosecution processes and would soon have the culprits arraigned before court.
The Regional Police Command aims to extend the operation to every part of the region to ensure a safe and secure Yuletide.
Law-abiding citizens are again encouraged to collaborate with the police in achieving this objective.
Deputy P.R.O of the Volta Regional Police Command Inspector Prince Dogbatse told the media some suspected criminals have been arrested.
He also assured residents in the area of a crime free Christmas.
