The suspects—Seth Noi Tetteh, also known as “Wonder,” Selasie Emmanuel, and Sulemana Osman—were apprehended on December 24 and 26, 2025, following intelligence that Tetteh had been taken into custody at the Atadeka Police Station for his involvement in multiple robbery incidents.

During interrogation, Tetteh admitted to participating in several robberies in areas including Afienya, Atadeka, Apollonia, Spintex Road, Airport Residential Area, Community 18, Ashaiman, Mataheko, and Oyibi, and revealed that he operated with other accomplices.

Further investigations led police to Kasoa Ofankor on December 26, where Emmanuel and Osman were arrested at a hideout. A subsequent search of their residence resulted in the seizure of one pump-action gun, one BB cartridge, one Bruni pistol, and three rounds of ammunition, all secured as exhibits for ongoing investigations.

All three suspects remain in police custody as authorities continue efforts to dismantle the robbery network and bring all involved to justice.

The accused officer, identified as Corporal Lansa Umar and stationed at Asaam near Mampong, allegedly forcefully gained entry into the residence of a fellow policeman.

With the assistance of an accomplice, Umar purportedly broke through the security door and made away with multiple bags of cement.

The incident came to light when a vigilant resident in the Twere Nyame neighborhood of Nyinahin heard an unusual noise emanating from the scene of the break-in.

Realizing that a robbery was taking place, the resident swiftly alerted the neighbouring households about the distressing event.

Promptly responding to the call, the local police swiftly arrived at the scene, where they found evidence pointing towards the involvement of Corporal Lansa Umar.

The authorities wasted no time in placing Umar under arrest.

The news of a police officer engaging in criminal activities has shocked the community, as it raises questions about the integrity and trustworthiness of those entrusted with maintaining law and order.
