CANU on Saturday evening intercepted 61 lbs of suspected cocaine on a go-fast boat at the Parika Backdam and two men are in custody and a third who allegedly issued threats is being sought.
In a statement yesterday, the Customs Anti-Narcotic Unit (CANU) said that it intercepted the suspected drugs in a fibre glass vessel at Parika Backdam, East Bank Essequibo.
CANU said the darkly painted go-fast vessel was intercepted with several parcels of the suspected cocaine in its bow.
