A 30 year old plumber at Agona Swedru, Kofi Boison, was on Monday remanded in police custody by an Agona Swedru Circuit Court for possessing 90 wrappers of a whitish substance suspected to be cocaine.

Boison pleaded not guilty to unlawful possession of narcotic drugs, and will reappear before the Court on November 11.
