Armed with information from their foreign counterparts, the Custom Anti-Narcotic Unit (CANU) says it is currently pursuing new leads as investigations continue into the record-breaking discovery of 11.5 tonnes of cocaine in a container of scrap metal in Belgium that was shipped from Guyana.
Speaking to Stabroek News yesterday, CANU Head, James Singh said that the matter has been under continuous investigation, while noting that they are pursuing new leads with the intelligence gathered from their overseas counterparts.
He stated further that despite the interrogation of several persons including officers of the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA), there was no concrete evidence to institute charges.
