The command after the exercise which started at 8 am on Wednesday impounded a total of 93 motorbikes and 4 tricycles for various motor traffic offences.
District Crime Officer ASP Williams Abayeteyie disclosed to JoyNews that the move is part of a series of similar swoops embarked by the command to sanitize the Municipality from crimes committed with stolen Motorcycles.

The operation ended at 2 pm without any unusual incident.
