The Liberia Drug Enforcement Agency (LDEA) Grand Cape Mount County Unit has apprehended two individuals—26-year-old Liberian national Joseph Barclay and 23-year-old Sierra Leonean David Kalokoh—for allegedly trafficking 1 kilogram of Kush, estimated to be worth US$20,000 (LD$3.8 million).
The seizure occurred on July 6, 2025, around 2:30 PM at the Bo Waterside Port of Entry. Authorities discovered the narcotics hidden inside a black Wrangler Jeep that was being towed due to mechanical failure.
Following their arrest, the suspects were questioned, formally charged, and remanded to the Tienii Magisterial Court for prosecution.
The LDEA reaffirmed its dedication to combating illegal drug activities and encouraged citizens to report any suspicious drug-related incidents by calling the hotline at 0777-133-333.
