The Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service has arrested two male suspects believed to be robbers involved in a series of violent carjacking incidents. The suspects were apprehended following intelligence gathered by the CID Headquarters. Manso Nkwanta: Two arrested over mysterious death of young man at Abrense According to a report by citinewsroom.com on November 8, 2025, the suspects, identified as Kwadwo Badu, aged 43, and Issaka Jamal, alias Hero One, aged 30, allegedly attacked a victim and forcibly seized an unregistered Hyundai Tucson at Mpatasie, near St Anthony Hospital in the Ashanti Region. The report indicated that after committing the crime, the suspects headed toward Accra in the vehicle they had allegedly stolen. Following intelligence gathered, the CID mounted an operation the next day, November 8, 2025, during which the team spotted the stolen Hyundai Tucson with four occupants along the Ofankor Barrier–St John’s stretch of the Accra–Nsawam Highway. The suspects aboard the vehicle attempted to speed off when police intercepted them but their failed escape attempt forced them to abandon the car and flee. However, two were immediately apprehended while the other two managed to escape, the report added. Police confirmed that both men sustained injuries during the arrest — one suffered a gunshot wound and the other sustained minor injuries. They were taken to the Police Hospital, where they are said to be in stable condition and responding to treatment.
