Prison officers at Ankaful Maximum Prisons at Cape Coast in the Central Region yesterday arrested two women who allegedly attempted to smuggle 47 parcels of a substance believed to be Indian hemp (wee) to the inmates at the prison.

According to information, the two women, Mary Nyanka, 22, and Grace Kusi, 60, were arrested by the officers on duty at about 9am.

Briefing DAILY GUIDE, the Central Regional Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the Ghana Prisons Service, ASP Daniel Matchato, said the two suspects had concealed the substance in mobile phones and containers of locally manufactured soaps.

The suspects, who reportedly claimed to be relatives of the inmates, have since been handed over to the Elmina District Police Command for investigation.
