Nollywood actor, Hanks Anuku has reportedly been arrested for causing fear and panic in Accra, Ghana while shooting a movie titled Night Scenes in Ghana on July 23, 2015.
According to reports, motorists using the road, on hearing gunshots and shouts, got frightened and quickly reversed, creating chaos in the vicinity. As the scene of the movie portrays a robbery, pedestrians panicked and ran helter skelter to take cover. The police were called in and acted professionally to avert what could have resulted in an exchange of fire.
And those arrested include Hanks Anuku, George Adu Badu, producer of the movie; Joseph Heisk, Ivy Bentum, Adjetey Roberta, and Elu Heaka Mensah.

He said police patrol teams were dispatched to the scene only to discover that the supposed gang is a film production crew from the company known as ‘The Rabel Entertainment’ using rubber pistols, toy machine guns and firecrackers to shoot a movie.
