Theheraldghana.com has reported that a female staff of the Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC) stationed at KIA has been arrested and locked up for aiding in the smuggling of cocaine at the Brussels Airport in Belgium.

The suspect Proeger Delgey Bianca was found to have concealed the cocaine around her waist, ingeniously disguised it as undergarments, and used adhesive tape to secure the drugs down to her thighs, to her buttocks, portraying her as a woman with a heavy butt.

The development sheds light on the intricate web of complicity behind the illicit operation, involving officials of Ghana Airport Company Limited (GACL) and NACOC among others stationed at KIA, facilitating the trafficking of contraband goods.

She managed to evade security checks with the assistance of the NACOC staff member, who escorted her through the Central Screening Area without undergoing the necessary protocols.

She wore a long flowing dress which covered her whole body down to her legs. Several videos of the incident showed the NACOC staff helping Bianca with her luggage through the Central Screening Area of KIA on the date of her departure to Belgium, skipping the various security checks except for her luggage which was scanned.

She carried a bowl-like object which looked like a big calabash, and did not go through the rigorous body search before boarding the Moroccan national carrier, Royal Air Maroc, on March 23, 2024.

In one of the videos available to The Herald, a man believed to be a senior officer identified as Eric Nartey Yeboah, also known as "Chairman Dollar," was seen engaging some of the Aviation Security Personnel, thus distracting them from paying attention to Proeger Delgey Bianca's presence and that NACOC official.

Eric Nartey Yeboah, whom the GACL has since interdicted together with some other staff implicated in the cocaine smuggling incident, was not officially on duty during the night of the smuggling incident.
