A boat captain was remanded to prison on Monday after he was charged with possession of cannabis and ammunition, which police say they found during an interception on the Cuyuni River.
The charges against Hiralall Gildharie alleged that on January 16th, at Blackwater Creek, Cuyuni, he was found in possession of 271.3 grammes of cannabis as well as a 12-gauge shotgun cartridge.
Gildharie pleaded not guilty to both charges after they were read to him by acting Chief Magistrate Sherdel Isaacs-Marcus.
