According to the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service (TTPS), Officers seized over $2.9 million worth of high grade marijuana during an intelligence-led exercise yesterday (Thursday 25th April, 2024) in the Southern Division.
Reports indicate that an intelligence unit received information about a planned drug importation operation, involving a South American drug trafficking network operating in Trinidad, with Venezuelan and Colombian associates. The Officers received further actionable information which suggested that a Venezuelan who resides in Cocoyea, San Fernando, was in possession of a substantial amount of narcotics. The unit, acting on the information, identified the suspect, a vehicle he used and conducted meticulous surveillance exercises, then located the vehicle, a Nissan Tiida, which was parked along Inverene Road, Cocoyea. They also observed two (2) men standing at the rear of the vehicle. The intelligence unit, along with Officers of the Southern Division Task Force (SDTF), approached the vehicle and conducted a search, where they discovered twenty-seven (27) kilogrammes of high-grade ‘Creepy’ marijuana, with an estimated street value of TT $2,963,169. ‘Creepy’ is said to be a label that encompasses a series of marijuana strains with a higher THC percentage.
The two (2) men, a Venezuelan and a Trinidadian national, were arrested in connection with the seizure.
