An investigation has been launched into the origins of a quantity of ganja discovered in the Sparendaam Squatting Area, East Coast Demerara on Thursday during a Police operation.

Police have said that a party of ranks who were on patrol found 49 Ziplock bags containing 51 grams of cannabis during a ‘cordon and search’ exercise conducted in the Plaisance/Sparendaam area between 05:30h and 07:00h on Thursday.
Based on reports received, at about 06:00h, while ranks were approaching the Sparendaam Squatting Area, several persons were observed running from several small shops that are situated on the eastern side of an access road. As a result, the area was searched, during which a black plastic bag containing the cannabis was found in a clump of bushes. The ganja was later weighed and amounted to 51 grams.
No one was arrested, but investigations continue.
