An unmarked bag containing ten parcels of cocaine was this afternoon found at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport, Timehri and it is believed that it was to be placed on a flight bound for New York.
Stabroek News understands that it was officers of the Customs and Anti-Narcotics Unit (CANU) who first spotted the bag in the baggage area.
The cocaine which appears to be in two-pound parcels was wrapped in brown paper.
Investigations are continuing.
