Mabaruma woman busted with cocaine, ganja during police raid

Forty-nine-year-old Jarrette Singh from Kumaka Stretch, Mabaruma, North West District (NWD) was taken into custody on Saturday for having a quantity of cocaine and ganja.
The unemployed woman was arrested during a police raid which led to the discovery of two transparent plastic bags containing cannabis next to a cupboard in the kitchen area of her home. Upon questioning, she reportedly told police, “It’s mine. I use it for my illness.”

However, a further search of the home led to the discovery of several small transparent Ziplock plastic bags, three small digital scales, a small coffee plate with a razor blade, and a small whitish substance suspected to be cocaine, along with two marijuana crushers and a pack of Bamboo (paper used for smoking ganja).
The items were seized and Singh was arrested and taken to the Mabaruma Police Station where the cannabis was weighed and amounted to 41 grams. The weight of the suspected cocaine was not established.
Singh remains in custody pending charges.
