Sadala Nuhu was buried on Monday, exactly a week after she passed away. According to sources, she complained of severe abdominal aches and passed away later.
Prosecuting, the acting Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), Ms Cynthia Lamptey, told the court that Nuhu and Amponsah were friends of Ametefeh, alias Ruby Appiah, alias Ruby Adu Gyamfi, who had been arrested in the UK for the illegal importation of cocaine.
Sadala Nuhu and Nana Akua Amponsah booked their flights to travel to London on November 8, 2014. However, by agreement, they changed their flight dates to November 9, 2014, the date on which Ametefeh was scheduled to travel to London.
On November 9, 2014, the two and Ametefeh met at the Departure Lounge of the Kotoka International Airport and checked in, after which Ametefeh informed them that they would be using the VIP Lounge at the airport.
After checking in, they all moved to the Okponglo residence of Ametefeh’s mother, where they met a certain gentleman. After about 30 minutes, they left the house for the airport in a four-wheel-drive vehicle, where they were met by Ahmed Abubakar and Theophilus Kissi, who have already been charged and put before the court.
The two men ushered the ladies through the staff entrance of the airport, through the Arrival Hall to the VIP Lounge. Abubakar and Kissi facilitated the passage of the three ladies by processing their passports and boarding documents.
Additionally, the two carried the ladies’ luggage onto the aeroplane for departure to the UK. After the three had boarded the British Airways aircraft, a man in black suit brought in another luggage which was handed over to Ametefeh. Upon arrival in the UK, Ametefeh was arrested.
