The procedures of the Customs Anti-Narcotic Unit (CANU) are expected to see “some” internal changes following the actions of some ranks during a recent anti-smuggling operation in Lethem, according to CANU Head James Singh.
Singh, when contacted by Stabroek News for an update on the investigation, said CANU is currently reviewing the entire team’s actions during the operation, which saw the arrest of a Lethem man for allegedly smuggling goods from Brazil into Guyana.
Singh refused to comment further while noting that the team was expected to return yesterday afternoon after which a discussion was to be held on what went wrong, why and what corrective actions can be taken to avoid future occurrences.
