During interrogation, Christopher Partey, a passenger on board, admitted ownership of the items. The exhibits have been handed over to the Drug Law Enforcement Unit at the Police Headquarters for further investigation. The suspect is currently in police custody, assisting investigations, and will be put before the court.
