The incident occurred at Dalogu Yili, a suburb of Tamale, and was reported to the police at about 9:00 a.m. on December 26.
According to reports, the Inspector-General of Police’s (IGP) Special Operations Team, led by Chief Inspector Abdullai Tahiru, responded swiftly to the scene and rescued the victim without incident.
The suspect was apprehended and handed over to the Regional Criminal Investigations Department (CID) for further investigation, while the victim was safely reunited with her parents.
Meanwhile, as part of a festive season crackdown on crime, two suspected drug peddlers were arrested in separate operations in Tamale.
The suspects, Ziyad Inusah and Majid Fuseini, were picked up by the IGP Special Operations Team during a routine Christmas patrol.
The team, made up of 105 personnel in 10 vehicles, targeted crime-prone areas within the Tamale Metropolis and seized quantities of opioids from one of the suspects.
The Ghana Police Service said the operation reflects its commitment to protecting lives and property and intensifying efforts to clamp down on drug peddling and other criminal activities during the festive period.
