LDEA Breaks Silence, Dismisses Drug Vehicle Allegations Against Director Biago
The Liberia Drug Enforcement Agency (LDEA) has strongly rejected allegations that its Officer-in-Charge, DCP Fitzgerald T. M. Biago, received a Toyota pickup from an individual allegedly connected to drug trafficking, describing the claims as baseless and lacking credible evidence.
According to the agency, Director Biago categorically denies ever receiving or authorizing the receipt of such a vehicle. The LDEA further stated that an internal review found no verified records or evidence to support the accusations.
While maintaining its confidence in the integrity of its leadership, the agency emphasized that it remains open to any lawful and independent investigation should credible evidence emerge. However, it cautioned the public against accepting unverified allegations as established facts.
Reaffirming its zero-tolerance policy on corruption, the LDEA said it remains fully committed to combating drug trafficking, upholding transparency, and protecting the credibility of its operations.
