The Customs Anti-Narcotic Unit (CANU) has applied to Magistrate Judy Latchman to summon journalist Travis Chase and a station manager to testify in the trial of self-confessed drug trafficker Barry Dataram.
Dataram, his common-law wife Anjanie Boodnarine, Kevin Charran, and Trevor Gouveia, are currently on trial for the alleged possession of 129.230 kilogrammes of cocaine (equivalent to 284 pounds), which police say was found at his Diamond Housing Scheme home last year April.
The trial, which was set to continue yesterday before Magistrate Latchman, was to see Customs Anti-Narcotic Unit (CANU) officer Andrew Yarde face cross-examination by attorney Glenn Hanoman,
