On 21 January 2018, seven inmates from the Kwabenya Police Station cell escaped from prison following a cell break by six armed men.
The breakup of the cell resulted in the death of a police officer, Inspector Emmanuel Ashilevi.
The police were able to arrest four of the escapees and nine people who would have helped their escape, but three of the escapees – Chibuzor Akwubu, Rockson Edem Dzigbede
The prosecution told the court that before the operation, two gang members had investigated the police station by voluntarily going to the scene to file a complaint.
They complained of having borrowed money and refused to pay, which a police officer ordered them to bring to the civil court.
"At that time, the two men signaled to the others who had ambushed an attack on the office of the charge. They fired at Inspector Ashilevi, who was on duty.
"They took the cell keys and released seven of the detainees, namely Prince Osei, Atta Kwadwo, Chibuzor Akwubu, Emmanuel Kotey, Darko Kofi, Edem Dzigbede Rockson and Dickson Ofori," said the prosecutor.
