Police ranks stationed at the Itaballi Police Checkpoint in Regional Division #7 (Cuyuni-Mazaruni) have arrested a 62-year-old Businesswoman of North Ruimveldt, Georgetown, following the discovery of a quantity of suspected cocaine and cannabis.
The narcotics were found during a stop-and-search operation earlier today (Sunday, November 2, 2025).
During the exercise, ranks stopped a motor pickup driven by a 38-year-old Driver of Byderabo Road, Bartica, and conducted a search of the occupants and their belongings.
A multi-coloured bag in the woman’s possession was found to contain several bulky parcels suspected to be cocaine, along with a smaller parcel containing leaves, seeds and stems suspected to be cannabis.
