The three men who were allegedly intercepted with $5 million worth of ganja by the Customs Anti-Narcotic Unit (CANU) were on Tuesday remanded to prison after they were read a drug trafficking charge.
Eighteen-year-old Jeremiah Smith, 42-year-old Damion Hinds and Stuart Hamer, 64, were all arraigned in the Mibicuri Magistrate’s Court where they appeared before Magistrate Alex Moore who read the charge to them.
The charge alleges that on November 17th at #78 Village, Springlands, Corentyne, Berbice, they trafficked narcotics, that is to say 40 kilogrammes of cannabis.
