The Ghana Police Service has intensified its investigation into a high-profile robbery in Labone after a suspect was fatally shot during a targeted intelligence operation. The incident, which has drawn significant public attention, stems from a violent attack on December 4, 2025, involving a 77-year-old resident, Madam Christiana Frimpong. Law enforcement officials confirmed that the confrontation occurred as officers attempted to apprehend the individual linked to the crime, signaling a firm stance against violent robbery in the capital. According to police reports, the suspect, identified as Clement Kofi Aidoo, was tracked down by security forces following meticulous intelligence gathering. During the encounter, a confrontation ensued between the police and Aidoo, resulting in the suspect being fatally wounded. In the aftermath of the operation, police successfully recovered several items reported stolen during the initial robbery, including a Toyota Hilux vehicle. This recovery marks a significant breakthrough in the case, providing physical evidence connecting the suspect to the crime scene at Madam Frimpong’s residence. The investigation has taken a more complex turn with the emergence of potential links between the deceased suspect and a member of the police force. Preliminary inquiries have connected G/Sgt Daniel Kusi Appiah to Clement Kofi Aidoo, prompting authorities to officially invite the officer for questioning. This development underscores the police administration's commitment to internal accountability and ensuring that any potential complicity within its ranks is thoroughly scrutinized. The service has maintained that no stone will be left unturned in determining the full extent of the relationship between the officer and the criminal suspect. As the investigation continues, the Ghana Police Service has reassured the public of its dedication to maintaining law and order. The case highlights the ongoing challenges of urban crime while demonstrating the efficacy of intelligence-led policing in tracking down dangerous suspects. Further details are expected to emerge as forensic analysis and interrogations proceed. For now, the focus remains on delivering justice for Madam Frimpong and ensuring that all parties involved in the criminal enterprise are held accountable under the law.
