A joint operation between the police, Coast Guard, and “international partners” has led to the seizure of over $29 million worth of high-grade marijuana after intercepting a vessel early on September 12.

Two people have been detained, and a search is ongoing for three other suspects.

A police statement on September 12 said a specialised police unit received credible intelligence on September 11 that a large consignment of high-grade Colombian “Creepy” marijuana was being transported from Venezuela to Trinidad aboard a fishing vessel.
