A fire incident on Sunday destroyed 12 tanker trucks at Ashaiman.
The tankers, reportedly belonging to an unidentified businessman, were filled with petroleum products meant for distribution to some fuel stations on Monday.
The fire broke out in the afternoon and it took four hours before personnel of the Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS) could bring it under control.
According to the Deputy Chief fire officer in charge of operations with the GNFS, William Mensah, "upon receiving the call,  we quickly rushed to the scene where we realised it was a tanker yard which had some tanker trucks filled with products in them. We managed to put of the fire which lasted for almost four hoursâ€.
"We are still investigating to know the actual cause of the fire but we can not rule out transfer of products because the pumps that were used for such acts are all visible here" but our initial suspicions point to an illegal transfer of products, he noted.
