Two poachers, Abdulai Osman and Sumani Fuseini, have been arrested by Rangers of Mole National Park in the West Gonja Municipality of the Savannah Region.

The two were arrested on Sunday, December 25, 2022, after the Rangers on a normal patrol in the park heard a gunshot from the Poachers and rushed to the scene.

On their way, the Rangers saw a two-man team of Poachers who had shot and killed an antelope and a waterbuck.
