Nima Police investigates alleged burglary of three companies

THE Nima Police have begun investigations into the alleged burglary of three companies on the second floor of the Pyramid House in Accra on Saturday, December 15, 2012.
The companies are Blay and Associates, Precious Minerals Resources Limited and International Commercial Bank, all located in the Pyramid House on the Ring Road.
Already, security men and cleaners who were on duty at the time of the incident have been questioned.
The closed circuit television (CCTV) camera which had been installed in the building will be reviewed to see if it captured the perpetrators of the burglary.
According to the Public Affairs Officer of the Accra Regional Police Command, Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Mr Freeman Tettey, about 9:30 a.m. on Sunday, December 16, 2012, a cleaner from the Pyramid House went to the Nima Police Station to report that some offices within the building had been broken into by thieves.
Following the report,  some policemen were quickly dispatched to the scene to ascertain the truth or otherwise of the incident.
 On arrival, Mr  Tettey said, the police realised that three of the offices on the second floor of the building had been broken into by thieves.
He said documents and files were scattered on the floor in all the offices.
Further investigations, he said, revealed that one of the offices of Blay and Associates belonged to Ms Gloria Akuffo, a member of the legal team of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
 He said  the police were yet to discover whether things had been stolen because the incident happened on Saturday night when the workers were not at post.
He said information reaching the police indicated that one laptop was stolen from the offices of Precious Minerals Resources Limited.
So far, no arrests have been made.
