ACCRA, Ghana (AP) - Two 16-year-old British girls were convicted Wednesday of trying to smuggle cocaine out of the West African country to Europe in laptop bags, officials and lawyers said.
Both girls were found guilty on counts of possession and trafficking of narcotic drugs, said Gary Nicholls, a British High Commission spokesman who announced the ruling outside the courthouse.
The girls, who face up to three years in jail, will be sentenced Dec. 5, he said.
