Roadside shops under CANU surveillance for narco trade

The Customs Anti-Narcotics Unit (CANU) on Wednesday discovered 872 grams of marijuana hidden among rubbish and green vegetation during an operation conducted at the D’Urban Backlands, Georgetown.
In a brief statement on the operation, CANU explained that “these narcotic operations are targeting the persons that are engaged in the selling as well as distribution of narcotics from stands, shops and other roadside areas”.
CANU Head James Singh posited that the aim of these operations was “to make communities safer by removing those engaging in narcotic activities.”
