Police have launched a manhunt for a driver accused of absconding with GH¢1.2 million entrusted to him for a business transaction in Kumasi.
The suspect, identified as Kwadwo Antwi, was reportedly employed by a private company and was assigned to deliver the cash to business partners.

Police say Antwi is about 5ft 8 in tall, dark in complexion, stout in build, and a native of Kukuom in the Ahafo Region.
He speaks Twi and English and is believed to be hiding in the Sehwi Asawinso area of the Western North Region.
