The Circuit Court in Accra presided over by Her Honour Patricia Amponsah has refused bail application by four Police Constables who were arraigned for their role in the Bullion Van attacks.
The four are facing two charges of attempt to commit crime to wit; robbery and Abetment, together with a civilian said to be a scrap dealer.
The four police officers are Constable Yaro Afisu Ibrahim, (A2), Constable Albert Ofosu, (A2), Constable Richard Boadu, (A3), and Constable Rabiu Jambedu, (A4).
One other, Razak Alhassan alias Zak,(A5), who is said to be a scrap dealer was also charged.
In court on Monday, March 28, 2022, DSP Sylvester Asare Asare told the court that, they are not yet through with their investigations.
According to him, a lot is ongoing by way of investigations and prayed for the accused persons to be remanded for further investigations.
DSP Asare said, from the last court sitting on March 9, several revelations have come up and four additional dockets involving the accused have been built in respect of the case.
He also told the court that, the police is closing up on some of the people mentioned in the case.
