Customs Anti-Narcotic Unit (CANU) officers yesterday conducted an operation on Orange Walk within the vicinity of Bourda Market and intercepted two males with a bag containing “brick-like” parcels of suspected cannabis.
A release last night from CANU said that Akeem Henry, 25, of Lot 32 Bent Street, Werk-en-Rust, and Ryan Marks, 27, who has no fixed place of abode, were arrested and escorted to CANU headquarters, with the suspected narcotics, which tested positive for cannabis. The five parcels containing cannabis weighed a total of 2.650 kg and had a street value of $800,000.
Investigations are ongoing.
