Cocaine was swapped before tendered in court- Justice Dordzie Committee

Accra, Jan. 10, GNA - The Committee of Inquiry that investigated circumstances under which 1,020 grammes of cocaine turned into sodium bicarbonate on Tuesday said if there were any swapping of the cocaine with any substance it was done before being tendered in court.

"It is our conclusion that if there were any swapping of the cocaine with any other substance it was done before the substance was tendered in court on September 27, 2011.

"It is our finding from the evidence before us that the substance that was tendered in court on September 27, 2011 was not cocaine.

"We became more convinced on our findings as stated above as a result of these and other corroborative evidence that came before us, "the Committee added.
