A Commercial bus driver dragged his passengers to the police station over counterfeit money payment to his bus conductor.
According to reports, the bus conductor earlier accused one of the passengers on board the bus identified as Okoe, seated in front as the one who paid his fare with the fake note.
Mr. Okoe, who had boarded the vehicle from GBC second gate and signaled he was getting off the trotro at Teshie Lascala, denied being the one who paid his fare with the fake note.
After few minutes, the mate surprisingly turned to a female passenger, an elderly woman who had joined the bus from Dankwa at Osu, apparently on her way from church, as being the one who gave him the GH¢ 20.
The woman became furious and embarrassed, and a heated argument erupted after confusion loomed as to who gave the mate of the bus a GHC20.00 cedi note.
Some passengers in the bus supported the woman and lambasted the mate for being “confused.”
The argument continued from Dankwa in a heated fashion.
Unhappy with the manner in which his mate was being treated by the passenger, driver of the trotro named Seth, decided to report the passengers to the police over the development.
According to Daily Guide Network, upon reaching Teshie, he dashed to the police station.
At the Teshie Police Station, the GH¢ 20 was handed over to Inspector Larbi and both passengers suspected of using the money to pay for their lorry fare were reported to the police.
