GACL staff interdicted over alleged cocaine smuggling at KIA

The Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL) has taken action by interdicting all staff implicated in the recent cocaine smuggling incident at the Kotoka International Airport (KIA).

The scandal came to light following the interception of a significant quantity of illegal drugs at Brussels Airport in Belgium.

Reports suggest that the cocaine was smuggled through KIA aboard the Moroccan national carrier, Royal Air Maroc, with the assistance of a GACL staff member on March 23, 2024.

Proeger Delgey Bianca, a Dutch national, was apprehended at Brussels Airport with eight and a half kilograms of suspected cocaine, believed to have been transported through KIA on the said date.

In a statement on Wednesday, April 10, GACL confirmed the commencement of investigations and the interdiction of the staff involved in the incident.

“Management has also reiterated its warning to staff regarding the facilitation of passengers at the airport, failing which punitive measures not limited to but including summary dismissals and prosecutions by the state will be effected in line with existing protocols,” the statement said.

Below is the full statement
