Phnom Penh Municipal Court yesterday jailed a Nigerian man for life and his accomplice to 30 years for trafficking more than a kilo of cocaine from Colombia to Cambodia. They were also fined $17,500 each.

 

Presiding Judge Seng Rithy identified the two as Okoro Chukwuka Boniface, 28, who was convicted for drug transport and trafficking, and Frank Obiora Dozie, 34, who was his accomplice. Judge Rithy said the duo was arrested on July 13 last year by anti-drug police from the Interior Ministry in collaboration with Customs and Immigration police based at the Phnom Penh International Airport.

 

He added that after their arrests, police seized a total of 189 packs of cocaine weighing 1.1 kilos, which were hidden in a box of fake jewellery couriered from Colombia to Phnom Penh by DHL. Mr Boniface admitted his guilt during his trial earlier this month.
