The Economic and Organized Crime Office (EOCO) has announced that it has seized 95 luxurious cars.

The office expects dealerships in possession of the vehicles to present them before May 3.

Owners of these vehicles must report to the EOCO offices with the needed documents or risk them being totally confiscated in accordance with the law.

The announcement follows an Intelligence-led operation by EOCO, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) that busted a vehicle-stealing syndicate in Ghana last December.
