The Special Organised Crime Unit (SOCU) has filed civil forfeiture proceedings against a Venezuelan woman, who was found in possession of a large amount of cash, suspected to be the proceeds of drug trafficking, at her East Bank Demerara residence in January last year.
Advertisements in both English and Spanish, which were published in yesterday’s edition of Stabroek News, advised Angelica Margarita Lara Malave of a February 18th hearing of the case by Justice Navindra Singh.
A law enforcement official has since informed that the whereabouts of the woman are unknown, hence, the publication.
The ads list Lot 285 Burrow Street, Republic Park as her address but Sunday Stabroek was told that she is not occupying that residence.
