A Ghanaian born musician, Charles Taylor popularly known as Ras Bobo living in the USA has been arrested by security agents at the Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport for attempting to smuggle to United States country substance believed to be cocaine.
Charles Taylor was picked up at the last checkpoint before he was due to board a Delta AirLine on his way to Us.
According to security sources he concealed the whitish substance weighing 15.5 grams in both sides of a briefcase he was carrying. The security sources said Taylor told interrogators that he was travelling back to United States after he has finished performing on his dubbed concert in Mexico, Pachuca.
He said because the trip was for only a few days he decided not to travel with a heavy luggage and therefore bought the briefcase at the Pachuca, from roaming vendors.
Taylor said he did not know the briefcase contained the substance. Investigations into the case continue.
