An Assistant Superintendent and a team of Police ranks were on foot patrol duty on Friday afternoon at the Port Kaituma Waterfront, North West District, when they observed Robin Madison, a 58-year-old businessman, acting in a suspicious manner.
The ranks informed Madison of their suspicion, and they asked to conduct a search on his person for narcotics. Madison consented to the search, and Police found a quantity of seeds, leaves and stems suspected to be cannabis in his left hand.
Madison was informed about the offence committed and cautioned, and he responded: “Is me weed for smoking”.
He was arrested and taken to the Port Kaituma Police Station, where the suspected narcotic was weighed and amounted to 2.1 grammes.
