The Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC) has clarified that Mr Ebenezer Twum Asante is not connected to, nor involved in, any ongoing investigation by the Commission.
The clarification follows the publication of pictures that inadvertently captured Mr Asante during a routine behavioural detection exercise conducted by NACOC at the Kotoka International Airport on 19 February 2026.
A statement issued by NACOC on Tuesday (14 April) said the Commission has apologised to Mr Ebenezer Twum Asante for any inconvenience caused as a result of the publication.
