The Interior Minister, Muntaka Mubarak has tasked the Ashanti Regional Police Command to take swift action against “Tinker Island”, one of the most notorious drug dens in the Kumasi metropolis, in a move to tackle the growing menace of drug trafficking and abuse.
The den, widely known for its illegal drug trade and abuse, has been a source of concern for residents and law enforcement agencies for some time.
“Tinker Island” has gained a reputation as a hub for drug distribution, attracting dealers and users from various parts of the city.
Speaking during his engagement with the Ashanti Regional Police command, the Interior Ministry revealed that the den has become a hotspot for the sale of illegal substances, contributing to the alarming rise in drug-related crime and violence in Kumasi.
The drug operations are reportedly running openly, with dealers using the area as a base for their illicit activities.
Muntaka Mubarak has directed the Regional Police Command to eradicate the den in the next six months, condemning failed attempts to clear the area of drug dealers.
