Ghanaian socialite Abu Trica has disclosed that officers of the Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC) initially charged him under a different name when he was arrested.

Speaking in an interview on Onua TV, Abu Trica revealed that the name on the initial charge sheet was Emmanuel Adu Baah, which he said is not his real name.

According to him, NACOC officers later discovered his actual identity after reviewing documents obtained through a search warrant.

The socialite also opened up about the period he spent in custody, revealing that he was detained by NACOC for approximately one and a half months while making regular appearances in court.

His latest revelations come as he continues to share details about his experiences during his arrest, detention, and the legal processes that followed.
