Based on reports received, Haynes and other males were arrested and taken into custody after agents of CANU intervened during an Ecstasy transaction being conducted at Orange Walk. The illegal pills were found in possession of Haynes.
On Friday, Haynes was charged and appeared before Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts.
He denied the charge and was granted $200,000 bail. As a condition for bail, he was ordered to lodge his passport and report to CANU headquarters on a weekly basis until the completion of the matter.
The case was adjourned for November 1.
