Considering the nature of the case, only 28 people were allowed into the courtroom including 4 girls and 1 boy from the family of the accused. No journalist were allowed into the room.

Despite the hustle and tussle between the topmost political parties, information reaching Pulse.com.gh has it that no question was asked about the accused's nationality in court.

According Citi FM’s Philip Ashon who was in the court in the UK, the court refrained from stating the exact amount of the substance due to ongoing forensic analysis of the substance. According to prosecution, led by Ravinder John, Ms. Ametefeh would get a minimum of 10 years and if the substance is in excess of 10kg she will get more.

During Thursday’s hearing the prosecutor revealed that Ms. Ametefeh told border patrol officers she was in the country (UK) “for shopping.” Prosecutor Ravinder John also said that the woman was born in Ghana and lived in Austria and has also lived in Ghana for a period of time.

Ms. Ametefe appeared before the Crown Court at Isleworth on Thursday via a video link.
