Four armed men, wearing masks on board a taxi, screeched to a halt at Alla Bar, a busy commercial center in Kumasi, in broad daylight on Wednesday, and stormed the shop of a popular foreign exchange dealer, Mr Amadu Abdul and made away with unspecified amount believed to be in the millions.
Narrating the story to the Times on Thursday, a police spokesman said that Mr Abdul was changing foreign currencies into cedis for some customers at about 2.30 pm when the taxi, AS 4989 E, with the four occupants, including the driver, pulled up in front of the shop.
Wielding guns the four men dashed into the shop and ordered Mr Abdul and those present to ‘freeze’. They them seized an unspecified amount from Abdul and bolted. Abdul reported the robbery to the Zongo Police who have mounted a search for their arrest.
