Ganja possession lands man in court

Thirty-four-year-old Dwight Pindar on Monday found himself before Georgetown Magistrate Judy Latchman to answer to a charge of possession of narcotics for the purpose of trafficking.
Pindar appeared at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts, where he denied that on October 26, 2018, he had in his possession five grams of cannabis while he was at Regent Street, Georgetown.
Police Prosecutor Quinn Harris told the court that on October 26, Police ranks were conducting a raid on Regent Street, when the defendant was seen acting in a suspicious manner. A search was conducted on his person and two ziplock bags containing what was suspected to be cannabis were found in his pants pocket. He was cautioned, arrested and later charged for the present offence. The Police Prosecutor made no objections to bail. The defendant was released on $10,000 bail. The case will continue on October 31, 2018.
