Speaking on the Super Morning Show on Joy FM, the Minister said the arrest of the officers was part of an in-depth investigation into the attempt by a group of persons to take over the reins of government.
Some three civilians are so far in police custody for their roles in an elaborate plan to destabilise the state.
A joint security operation on Friday led to the retrieval of several arms, explosive devices and ammunition from locations in Accra and Kpone-Bawaleshie in Dodowa.
Personnel drawn from Defence Intelligence of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) and Bureau of National Investigations (BNI), conducted a successful operation which led to the arrest of three persons.

The persons arrested are Dr. Frederick Yao Mac-Palm and his two accomplices – Ezor Kafui (a local weapon manufacturer) and Bright Allan Debrah Ofosu (aka BB or ADC).”
