Police in Guyana’s Region 10 investigate the discovery of 35.4 kilograms (78 pounds) of suspected cannabis found on Wednesday night during an operation at Five Mile, Ituni Road, Upper Demerara River. According to reports, officers acted on information and observed two motorcycles without registration in the area.
One report says a biker is arrested with cash amounting to $455,000, while an accomplice escapes. Another outlet reports that a police chase occurs during the incident and that both cash and cannabis are recovered following the pursuit. Both accounts describe the seizure as part of a police operation and provide the same quantity of suspected cannabis and the same location and timing.
While the outlets differ in emphasis—one focuses on the arrest and escape, and the other highlights the chase and recovery of cash—they agree on the core facts: officers intercept motorcycles, seize 35.4kg of suspected cannabis, and recover a substantial sum of cash as part of the investigation.
