A 15-year-old girl who allegedly stole GH₵41,000 and an unspecified amount of gold from a gold shop in Twifo Praso, located in the Twifo Ati-Morkwa District of the Central Region, has been apprehended.
The girl and her boyfriend, whose identity has not been disclosed, were arrested at Egyaa in the Mfantseman Municipality of the Central Region following a tip-off.
