The ganja that was found during the Police operation
Police acting on information received went to a hotel at Parika, East Bank Essequibo (EBE), on Thursday where they arrested a 46-year-old labourer with a quantity of ganja in his possession.
Based on reports received, as the ranks arrived at the hotel, they observed the suspect acting in a suspicious manner.
As such, the ranks conducted a search on his person and the haversack he was carrying during which two black plastic bags containing a quantity of cannabis were unearthed. In one of the bags, several small zip-lock bags were found already packaged for sale.
The labourer, of Good Hope, EBE, was subsequently told of the offence committed, cautioned, arrested, and escorted to the Parika Police Station.
Whilst there, the narcotics were weighed and amounted to 206.3 grams.
