The former vice-president of Liberia was detained in August for involvement in an alleged "international drug trafficking network." The Liberian authorities were responsible for her detention as part of this investigation.

After her detention, the former vice-president was eventually released for "humanitarian reasons." She is currently under house arrest, having been released but without regaining full freedom.

The case involves an investigation into an alleged international drug trafficking network, in which the former vice-president is said to have been involved. The authorities did not specify what humanitarian reasons justified her release.
