Hartog arrested with fiancé

Hartog, 34, was arrested at Ashale Botwe on September 12 alongside her fiancé, businessman Desmond Koranteng Curiel, popularly known as Biggs.

The two were subsequently charged alongside Musah Attah and Kweku Otchere over an alleged attempt to export nearly four tonnes of suspected narcotics from Ghana to France.

The consignment, reportedly concealed among plastic waste, was intercepted by French customs officials at the port of Dunkirk on September 10.

NDLEA arrests businessman over alleged illicit shipments

Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported on Dunu Bethel Ebubechukwu, the Lagos-based herbal tea businessman arrested by the NDLEA over alleged illicit white powder shipments to Saudi Arabia.

The agency said the arrest formed part of a wider crackdown that uncovered major drug consignments across several Nigerian states.

The case drew attention because investigators alleged Ebubechukwu used a legitimate business as a cover for an international operation, while his previous conviction adds another troubling layer to the story.
