Personnel of the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) on Tuesday swooped in Ashaiman and its environs in a hunt for persons suspected to have stabbed and killed a young soldier (Trooper Imoro Sherrif) in the early hours of Saturday, March 4, 2023, at Ashaiman-Taifa.

Trooper Sherrif, who was based in Sunyani, had asked for permission to visit his parents in Ashaiman, where he grew up, while in Accra for a course. However, he was found dead on Saturday morning close to the Amania Hotel in Ashaiman.

A statement signed by the Director General of Public Relations, Brig Gen Aggrey-Quashie, said the operation was not carried out to exact revenge for the soldier’s death but to find those who committed the horrible crime.

During the raids at Ashaiman-Taifa and Tulaku, the military troops picked up roughly 184 suspects aged between 21 and 47 and have since handed them over to the Military Police, who will also hand them over to the Ghana Police Service for screening and further action.

During the swoop, the personnel seized 29 slabs and 57 mini slabs of suspected Indian hemp and amnesia, among other forms of narcotics.

The statement said the swoop was not targeted at innocent civilians but was an intelligence-led operation conducted at suspected hideouts of criminals and crime-prone areas in the general area.

GAF, the statement added, however, regretted some innocent persons might have been caught up in the operation and consequently suffered some distress due to the location they found themselves at the time.

To reduce criminal activity in the nation, the statement urged the general public to provide beneficial information, assist the security agencies to expel miscreants and criminals from our neighbourhoods and refrain from protecting and collaborating with such individuals.
