Three men were on Monday arrested after the Custom-Anti Narcotics Unit (CANU) discovered more than 24 kilograms of imported ganja during an operation at De Kinderen, West Coast Demerara (WCD).
CANU stated that on the day in question, ranks acting on information received intercepted a motor car along the De Kinderen Public Road, which subsequently led to the discovery of several parcels containing a quantity of foreign marijuana.
According to CANU, Antonio Bobb and Pooran Seemangal were arrested and escorted to CANU headquarters along with the suspected narcotic, which tested positive for foreign marijuana also known as “Creepy” and amounted to 21.714 kilograms when weighed.

In addition, CANU officers, during a follow-up investigation in Hauge, WCD, searched a residence, which led to the discovery of an additional 3.138 kilograms of cannabis and the arrest of Kenner Arjun.
Meanwhile, the trio appeared before Magistrate George at the Leonora Magistrate’s Court on Thursday, where they pleaded not guilty to the offence of possession of cannabis for the purpose of trafficking.
As such, bail was refused, and they were remanded to prison until August 20, 2025.
