Some twelve Nigerian suspects including a heavily pregnant woman have reportedly escape from police custody.
They were said to have been arrested separately, but have since gone missing after they were sent to the National Operations Department (JOC) at Police Headquarters in Accra for an interrogation.
They were subsequently moved into police custody and have since disappeared.
Reliable sources told The Herald that the Nigerian High Commission is making frantic efforts to get some details on the suspects.
It is not clear, whether the Police administration repatriated them to their country over what is suspected to be their criminal activities here in Ghana.
