The Central Regional Police Command has arrested seven suspects during an intelligence-led operation aimed at dismantling narcotic drug peddling networks within the Cape Coast Metropolis.
The operation, which took place on Saturday, December 13, 2025, targeted known drug bases and hotspots suspected to be hubs for the sale and use of prohibited substances.

The crackdown began at a suspected narcotics base in Effutu, where officers apprehended Robert Kobbina and Abu Issifu. The operation was subsequently extended to Poly Amisano and Nkanfoa, areas identified by law enforcement as active zones for drug peddling.

A search conducted on Kobbina and at a drinking spot operated by Janet Mensah led to the recovery of several illicit items, including:

- Dried Leaves: Suspected to be Indian hemp (cannabis).
