‎GH¢24 Million Jewelry Heist: Four Arrested, Including American National ‎



The Ghana Police Service has dismantled a high-profile robbery syndicate linked to a string of daring jewelry heists across Accra and Takoradi.

‎

‎​Four suspects have been taken into custody, including Justin Madden, identified by authorities as an American national.

‎


The group is allegedly responsible for five separate raids between April 2025 and March 2026, with the total value of stolen gold and gems exceeding GH¢24 million.

‎



‎​While the core operational team is in back in cells, police confirmed that a key accomplice,a receiver identified only by the alias “Oyarifa”,remains at large. High-tech forensic tracking and public intelligence led to the arrests.

‎



‎DCOP Grace Ansah-Akrofi commended the tactical teams involved and urged the public to provide any information leading to the arrest of the remaining fugitive.
