A search on her checked-in luggage in her presence led to the discovery of seven parcels of brownish powdery substances suspected to be narcotics and concealed in false compartments of her suitcase.

Cynthia Lichonja was nabbed at the Kotoka International Airport

The substance tested positive for speedball, a narcotic substance with a weight of 7.5kg.

She admitted that the suitcase was given to her by one Ms. Patience, her childhood friend in Zimbabwe to be sent to an unknown person in Accra, adding that Ms. Patience bought her the ticket to enable her travel to Accra.

The suspect is currently on remand in prison custody, while frantic efforts are being made to track down the said Ms. Patience and her accomplice to whom the suitcase was to be delivered.

NACOB admonished the public to desist from delivering parcels for and on behalf of others, as it has been the conduit for trafficking narcotic drugs.

The public is also encouraged to voluntarily provide information leading to the successful arrest of persons suspected to be indulging in nefarious activities, especially narcotic related acts.
