The Police Professional Standards Bureau (PPSB) has launched an investigation into the alleged unauthorised withdrawal of GH₵400,000 from a mobile money account belonging to Derrick Okyere Dapaah, also known as “Pablo,” a mobile money merchant in Kumasi.The investigation follows a directive from the Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Christian Tetteh Yohuno.In a post shared on Facebook on Sunday, March 29, preliminary investigations have revealed that the GH₵400,000 forms part of proceeds from a gold robbery and fraud incident currently under scrutiny.Details of the IncidentPolice reports indicate that on December 8, 2025, the complainant, Francis Ayaaba of Ejisu, was lured to a house at Ntoaso near Nsawam under the pretext of a gold transaction.Mr. Ayaaba told authorities that he paid GH₵500,000 in cash and transferred GH₵400,000 via mobile money for a quantity of gold. Immediately after the payment, armed men reportedly appeared at the location and stole the gold.Subsequent investigations traced the GH₵400,000 payment to mobile money accounts linked to Derrick Okyere Dapaah (Pablo). The investigation further established that Dapaah moved the funds between two of his other mobile money accounts. The money was later withdrawn by one Abudu Dauda, using a Ghana Card bearing the name Isagali Promise. Dauda claimed he withdrew the funds on behalf of one Alhaji Ibrahim.Police Action and Court InterventionPolice secured court orders to freeze the mobile numbers involved, reverse the GH₵400,000 transaction, and have the amount held as an exhibit pending the outcome of the case.Further investigations led to the arrest of Abudu Dauda, Prince Ofori, and William Nene Sakitey Osabotey, a goldsmith and owner of the premises where the gold transaction occurred. Derrick Okyere Dapaah (Pablo) was also arrested and charged with abetment of crime.All four accused—Osabotey, Dauda, Ofori, and Dapaah—have been granted bail and are scheduled to reappear in court on 29 April 2026.Ongoing InvestigationsPolice have indicated that efforts are ongoing to apprehend the remaining suspects, identified as Alex and Alhaji Ibrahim, who are currently at large. “Meanwhile, efforts are ongoing to arrest the remaining suspects, identified as Alex and Alhaji Ibrahim, who are currently at large,” the statement concluded.
