In its ''Correspondents' Notebook'' column, the Weekend Chronicle reports that the Kumasi Police have mounted a search for two armed robbers who stripped a building contractor after robbing him of his ''Nissan''pick-up and an amount of 1.8 million cedis together with some personal belongings.
The paper quotes a police source as saying that on April 19, this year, at about 10 p.m., just as the contractor, Nana Bendan, had returned home from work and was collecting some personal effects and a briefcase containing the money from the car, the armed men pounced on him and took possession of the vehicle.
They forced him to enter the vehicle and drove him to a spot on the Kumasi-Sawua motorway where they robbed him of the money and the clothing he was wearing, rendering him naked. They then fired warning shots from pistols they were carrying and sped off with the Nissan pick-up, leaving their victim stranded.
