A Ghanaian national has been arrested by Philippino authorities after being caught with suspected methamphetamine hydrochloride (shabu) in the country?s capital, Manila.

John Nana Brown, together with two Indonesians ? Fitri Wiji Utami and Radity Chusnul Fariz, were arrested in a hotel called Stonehouse and at least 25 sachets of ?shabu? were seized from them, the country?s ABS-CBN News reported February 27, 2013.

The drugs were said to have been concealed in rolls of lace.
