The Bureau of National Investigations (BNI) has made another arrest in the cocaine-turned-baking soda scandal.
The national intelligence outfit has in their custody one Hannah Osei, who runs errands for the prime suspect at the centre of the case, Nana Ama Martin.
Citi News sources within the security set up have revealed that Osei alleged some property were sold at Lapaz in Accra and the proceeds used to bribe some court officials.
The BNI has up to Friday, January 6 to present its report to government aimed at unraveling the mystery surrounding how a substance tested as cocaine later metamorphosed into baking soda.
On Wednesday, media reports had it that the Chief of the Commercial Crimes Unit of the Criminal Investigations Department of the Ghana Police, DSP Gifty Mawuenyega, was being held by the BNI over the cocaine-turned-baking soda scandal.
Media reports quoted BNI insiders as having said DSP Mawuenyega met the suspect, Nana Ama Martin, from whom the cocaine was seized more than a dozen times whilst she was in custody, a development the BNI is investigating.
However, the spokesperson for the Police Service, DSP Cephas Arthur, who could not confirm or deny the story, however, said if the BNI should be holding any police officer it may be for a good course.
