The Customs Anti-Narcotics Unit (CANU) is awaiting additional information from its counterpart in Jamaica regarding the recent interception of 306 pounds of cocaine found concealed in two containers earlier this week.
Head of CANU James Singh, in an invited comment, yesterday told Stabroek News that as the probe continues, the brokers of the shipment are being questioned.
At this point, Singh said it is unclear how the cocaine made it out of the country since the contaminated containers were scanned before departure and should have been detected at that point.
