Interdicted deputy head of the commercial crime unit of the Ghana police service DSP Gifty Mawunyega Tehoda is making fresh attempt to be granted bail from detention.<\/p>\n
Her lawyers have filed an appeal at the human rights court to seek her release from BNI detention.<\/p>\n
The cocaine swap suspect Gifty Tehoda was remanded on a charge of promoting an enterprise related to narcotics drugs by an Accra circuit court last week, less than a week after she reunited with the family following a month in detention.<\/p>\n
She is alleged to have swapped the cocaine after her attempt to bribe the judge sitting on the case with 5,000 cedis failed.<\/p>\n
She had been in and out of police custody in a fierce attempt by her lawyers to secure bail.<\/p>\n
Attempts to secure her bail failed; however, her lawyers have gone to a higher court asking for bail for their client. A member of the legal team Olive Jeble told JOYNEWS he is confident she will be set free when the case is heard on Tuesday. <\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
