The Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC) has conducted a major operation in the Eastern Region, targeting illegal drug activities in Akyem Oda and Akroso.
During the raid, 14 suspects were arrested in connection with the possession and distribution of illegal drugs.
The swift operation followed weeks of intelligence gathering and surveillance on suspected individuals and businesses.
As part of the crackdown, three licensed chemical stores were shut down after they were found to be selling unregistered and controlled substances without proper authorization.
Large quantities of illegal drugs and suspicious pharmaceutical products—such as tramadol, cannabis, and other controlled substances—were seized during the exercise.
NACOC officials have assured the public of continued efforts to dismantle drug networks across the country and are urging residents to report any suspicious drug-related activities in their communities.
