The High Court in Accra has ordered the destruction of a massive 3,319.66-kilogram (3.3-tonne) haul of cocaine, valued at approximately $350 million, on June 20, 2025.
The order follows the interception of the drugs by the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) in March 2025.
The seizure, confirmed as the largest cocaine bust in Ghana's history, involved cocaine concealed in a tipper truck and discovered at Pedu Junction in Cape Coast, Central Region, while en route to Accra from the Western Region.
The cocaine, hidden in 143 sacks beneath heaps of sand, was initially seized on March 4, 2025, weighing 2,974 kilograms.
