Dominic Bernard Jones and the ganja that he was carrying in the haversack
Acting on intel received on the day in question, a party of Police ranks ventured to the Berbice River Bridge access road and intercepted Dominic Bernard Jones, who was carrying a black haversack. The ranks identified themselves and requested to search the haversack, and Jones consented. That search unearthed two bulky parcels wrapped in plastic, both containing cannabis.
Jones was immediately told of the offence committed, cautioned, arrested, and taken to the Central Police Station, where the ganja was weighed in his presence and amounted to 2,000 grams.
Jones remains in custody pending further investigations.
