Legon (GAR), Feb 23, GNA - Two armed-robbers wielding locally manufactured guns on Thursday attacked Madam Ekua Adjisu, a Lecturer of the University of Ghana, Legon at her East-Legon residence.

In an interview with GNA, the Crime Investigator of the Security Section of the University, Mr. Paul Adanusa, said Madam Adjisu was watching television around 8.45p.m.on Thursday evening when armed-robbers entered her bungalow.

The Crime Investigator said they demanded that she brought out all foreign currency she had and Madam Adjisu promptly obeyed and handed over a hundred thousand Cedis in her purse and two hundred and fifty Dollars.
A lady, living in her boy's quarters saw what was happening and rushed to the University Security Gate to lodge a complaint but before the arrival of a Police cum Legon Security Patrol team, the armed-robbers had bolted with their booty.
A report on the robbery had been lodged with the Legon District Police Command for further investigation.
