The Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC) in Ghana explained its decision to allow a Syrian national, suspected of trafficking about 40 kilogrammes of cocaine, to travel to Lebanon as part of an operation targeting an international drug network. Head of Public Relations, Francis Amoah, said the agency monitored the suspect throughout his time in Ghana, tracking his movements, including arrival, hotel stays, and departure.
NACOC informed the transport of the suspect to Lebanon as part of a controlled delivery strategy, which involves allowing a suspect and the consignment to reach another country to apprehend both the individual and other members of the trafficking network.
