Nayele Ametefe, aka Ruby Adu Gyamfi, the Ghanaian woman in the thick of the 12.5kg cocaine saga that rocked the nation a few months ago has been sentenced to eight years and eight months imprisonment by a British court.
The 32-year-old is believed to have used the VVIP Lounge of Ghana’s only international airport – Kotoka – in the capital Accra to smuggle the prohibited substance outside the shores of the West African country via a British Airways flight.
According to preliminary investigations, she was aided by three Ghanaian security and foreign affairs officials who are also standing trial in Ghana.
According to our reporters in court, the street value of the cocaine carried by Nayele was approximately 1.9 million Pounds. She was reported to have had on her $23, 000 and 6000 Pounds at the time of her arrest.
Our reporter, Frank Davies said Nayele appeared well dressed in court, dressed in a jumper with a black pair of trousers to match and appeared very calm.
According to GhanaWeb, her lawyer, she is not likely to return to Ghana after her jail term and could head to Austria.
