The Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC) has successfully arrested 72 individuals in a large-scale operation targeting illegal drug activities across the Eastern and Greater Accra regions of Ghana. The intelligence-led raids focused on known drug hotspots, including areas such as Mamfe and Tutu, where authorities had identified high levels of drug trafficking and distribution.
According to NACOC officials, the operation is part of ongoing efforts to dismantle illicit drug networks and reduce the circulation of illegal substances within local communities. The arrested suspects are currently in custody and are expected to face prosecution as investigations continue.
This action reflects Ghana’s commitment to combat drug-related crime, protect public safety, and ensure that narcotics do not continue to influence vulnerable communities. The Commission has reaffirmed its dedication to intensifying intelligence-led operations and holding offenders accountable under the law.
NACOC’s latest success underscores the importance of community cooperation and vigilance in supporting law enforcement agencies in the fight against illegal drugs. Authorities have also warned that such operations will continue until drug-related crimes are significantly reduced nationwide.
