MORE than $500,000 of high-grade marijuana plants were seized yesterday morning by officers of St Joseph Police Station and the Crime Patrol Unit along Bedessie Street, St Augustine.
At about 7 a.m., a party of officers, including Inspector Siagan Siewdass, Sgt Vetus Hernandez, PC Chadee and PC John, among several others, made their way to Bedessie Street, where they searched a three-bedroom apartment.
At the apartment, which the landlord said was being rented out to a student of The University of the West Indies (TUWI), the officers observed that two of the rooms had been transformed into a “green house” to grow marijuana plants.
In those rooms, the officers found lighting and hydroponics equipment and air filtration systems as well as more than 100 fully-grown marijuana trees and several seedlings.
The illegal items were all seized and transferred to St Joseph Police Station and the officers questioned the landlord about the tenant.
Police sources told the Express that an arrest “was imminent”.
That was not the only marijuana bust in the Northern Division yesterday, as a few hours earlier more than 1.2 kilogrammes of cured weed had been seized by officers of the Northern Division Task Force at Bertie Road, Five Rivers, Arouca, where the officers searched a wooden structure along the roadway.
At the time, the structure was occupied by four men, aged between 28 and 39 years, all from Arouca.
The lawmen found and seized 1.2 kgs of marijuana, with an estimated street value of $22,500, along with 122 rounds of assorted ammunition, one magazine, $500 in cash and a scale.
All four men were arrested and questioned before being brought before an Arima magistrate.
