The ganja that was found in the abandoned boat

Ranks of the Guyana Defence Force (GDF) Coast Guard Unit in Berbice intercepted a boat with 135 lbs of ganja on Tuesday.
Based on reports received, the GDF ranks were conducting patrol duties in the Berbice River when they observed a boat approaching but suddenly changing direction.
The patrols pursued the boat which ran aground onto the shore. The identifiable occupants jumped out of the boat and escaped.

The boat was later towed to the Coast Guard base, where, on inspection, the ranks observed found 10 parcels wrapped in black garbage bags and clear transparent plastic marked with the label B20.
The Coast Guards reportedly returned to location to look for the suspects but it proved futile. The narcotics were later handed over to the police. The boat and engine are presently at the Coast Guard Base. Investigations are ongoing.
