He said Papa, who is now in the United States of America (USA), called the police to explain to them that the car had been brought down to Ghana by his brother whose name he gave only as Johnny but that it was cleared at the Tema Port by Afful, who is married to Papa’s sister.
He claimed that Afful was annoyed that his wife had conspired with her brother, without his (Afful’s) knowledge, to sell the car and so he reported the matter to police.
