The former Vice President of Liberia, Jewel Howard-Taylor, has been arrested at the international airport in Roberts while attempting to leave the country and was taken to the headquarters of the national police. She faces charges including drug trafficking, money laundering, and other criminal activities as part of an investigation into an international drug network. In addition to Howard-Taylor, two Croatian citizens, Nikola Ivančić and Mihovil Vrovc, along with a Ukrainian citizen, Taira Zaderiyeko, have been indicted by Liberian authorities for their alleged involvement in this network, which allegedly used Liberia as a transit point. The Ministry of Justice has announced that all legal measures, both domestic and international, will be taken to locate and arrest those accused. This case comes after several major cocaine seizures in Liberia, including a record seizure of nearly four tons of cocaine worth approximately $317 million in July.
