Police ranks have discovered more than two kilograms of ganja in a backpack belonging to a male who was involved in an accident with a minibus at Coldingen, East Coast Demerara on Thursday.

Rendered unconscious by the impact, the motorcyclist and his backpack were picked up by the minibus driver and taken to the Vigilance Police Station, where the accident was reported.
