A man who stole a Mercedes Benz 308 bus from Accra and headed towards the Republic of Togo has been arrested at Tinjase, a border town in the Nkwanta District in the Volta Region.
The man, Kassim Fuseini, was arrested by officials of the Customs, Excise and Preventive Service (CEPS) when he could not produce the documents covering the vehicle at the border.
According to a police source at Nkwanta, the driver of the vehicle, with registration number GE 7731 X, Mr Forster Asante, had parked at the Tudu Station and went out to eat, without removing the key from the ignition.
He said on Asante’s return, the vehicle was not where it was parked and could also not be traced within the immediate environment.
Mr Asante was said to have quickly made a report to the Ministries Police Station, which traced the vehicle to Tinjase, about to cross the border to Togo.
Kassim Fuseini is in police custody assisting the police in their investigations.
