The police in the Ashanti Region have arrested five out of 10 suspected armed robbers who, in January this year, attacked a bullion van belonging to the Delta Security Company at Fomena in the Ashanti Region.
In the course of that attack, a policeman escorting the van, General Lance Corporal Martin Baba, was killed. 
The van was said to be transporting an amount of GH¢500,000 from the Dunkwa-on-Offin branch of the Ghana Commercial Bank to the bank’s branch at New Edubiase when the attack occurred.
The leader of the group, known as John Appiah, alias Omega, a 22-year-old senior high school (SHS) graduate whom the police described as trigger happy, is on the run.
