A swoop on dealers in counterfeit products in the central business district (CBD) of Accra has led to the arrest of six persons.
The joint operation by the Commercial Crime Unit of the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) and the SWAT Unit of the Ghana Police Service also led to the confiscation of alleged fake products which were found in the suspects’ shops.
The items retrieved included television and fridge guards meant to protect electrical gadgets against voltage fluctuations which are harmful to all motor-operated gadgets.
