National Security operatives have intercepted a large consignment of counterfeit currency and suspected gold bars concealed in twelve 20-foot shipping containers.

Acting on intelligence, officers carried out a raid at a warehouse in Sapeiman, located in the Ga South Municipality, where they discovered the illicit haul.

During the operation, bundles of fake US dollar notes were uncovered, hidden inside wooden crates and encased in cement to evade detection.

Authorities also confiscated counterfeit Ghana cedi notes, along with fraudulent Ghana Army uniforms and boots, heightening security concerns.

Officials revealed that two of the containers remain missing, with intensified efforts in place to track them down.

Meanwhile, a pursuit is underway for four suspects, including a key figure known only as Alhaji. National Security has assured the public that investigations are ongoing to dismantle the syndicate and ensure all those involved are held accountable.
