Six tonnes of marijuana intercepted en-route to Guyana

May 21, 2015 3:08 pm Category: latest news A+ / A-

Marijuana-smoke[Business Standard]The Dutch navy seized six tonnes of cannabis hidden on a fishing boat while patrolling the Caribbean, the defence ministry said today, describing it as “the biggest haul to date”.

 

“The Dutch navy found 6,000 kilogrammes of cannabis during a routine check on the fishing boat Caribbean Soul,” it said in a statement issued in The Hague.

 

The cannabis was discovered late last week after a US Coast Guard plane spotted the boat as it sailed from Jamaica to Guyana.

It was intercepted by the Dutch ship Zeeland, stationed to patrol the area which includes parts of the Kingdom of the Netherlands — Aruba, Curacao and Saint Maarten.

 

Twelve crew members were arrested and taken to Ponce in Puerto Rico and handed over to US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) officials.

Drug seizures, usually cocaine, regularly take place in the Caribbean Sea.

 

Until last week the largest drug haul by the Dutch navy was in 2008, when it snatched 4,2 tonnes of cocaine in the region.

More than 10 tonnes of cocaine were seized in the area in 2013 as a result of international collaboration, Dutch news agency ANP said.

..oh and lest you forget - Guyana was not the Caribbean's largest transhipment point for drugs when the PPP came to office in 92. Nor did we have a DEA office in Guyana. That nifty lil accomplishment belongs all to your party Nehru.
