Monrovia, Liberia – In a dramatic twist at the Robert International Airport (RIA), what was initially believed to be a major drug bust has taken an unexpected turn. The joint security team at RIA unveiled ten cartons, recently confiscated under suspicion of containing illicit drugs. These suspicions arose when the RIA’s Head of Security, Mr. Samuel Freeman, was allegedly caught attempting to transport them through an unauthorized gate at the airport.
During a press conference held in the Customs hall at RIA, Assistant Commissioner Atty Blamo Kofia revealed a shocking discovery. Behind closed doors, the ten suspected cartons were unveiled, only to reveal an entirely different cargo: organic tea leaves.
This revelation contradicted earlier media reports that had sensationalized the discovery as drug smuggling. In response, Mr. Kofia announced that the ten suspected cartons would undergo rigorous testing at the Liberia Drug Enforcement Agency to determine whether the tea leaves held any narcotic properties. The Joint Security team pledged to promptly inform the public of the results following the comprehensive testing, leaving observers astounded by the unexpected turn of events in this high-profile case.
