A 26-year-old man of Royston Avenue, Sarah Johanna, EBD has been arrested after a quantity of marijuana was found in his home.
On Wednesday, between 09:30 and 10:30, ranks of Regional Division 4B searched his home and unearthed a Bakewell plastic bag containing a quantity of cannabis on a shelf in the kitchen.
The suspect was told of the offence committed, and was cautioned; but he denied ownership of the narcotic, alleging that the illegal substance belonged to his brother.
He was arrested and escorted to the Timehri Police Station, where he was taken into custody. The suspected narcotic was weighed in his presence and amounted to 41 grams.
The GPF has indicated that further investigation is in progress.
