After allegedly being abandoned by their mother at the scene of a cocaine bust, a brother and sister were yesterday brought before a city magistrate to answer a drug trafficking charge.
It is alleged that Tommaka Bobb-Semple, 21, and Dillon Bobb-Semple, 23, on April 21, at Cross Street, Werk-en-Rust, Georgetown, had 171 grammes of cocaine in their possession for trafficking. Both defendants denied the charge.
Police Prosecutor Shawn Gonsalves objected to bail being granted. He stated that the police had conducted a raid at Lot 68 Cross Street, Werk-en-Rust, where the drugs were found in the home. He told the court that when the drugs were found, the defendants’ mother, Odetta Bobb-Semple, ran away.
