Nigerian nabbed with cocaine again

Apr 03, 2012 News

 

 

At around 05:30 hours yesterday at Springlands East Berbice,  ranks from the Customs Anti- Narcotics Unit (CANU) intercepted a “backtrack” boat operating between Guyana and Suriname and found 22 kilos of cocaine in a suitcase.  An African national is currently in police custody assisting with investigations.
According to reports, the drug ranks acting on information, stopped the boat and conducted a search. The drugs were reportedly discovered amongst some pieces of clothing which the passenger had in his possession.
The detained man has been identified as Nigerian born, Sulaiman Delodin. Delodin was on February 24 of last year charged for a similar offence. He faced Chief Magistrate Priya Beharry at the Georgetown Magistrate Court with three others after they were reportedly nabbed at a city hotel with 430 grams of cocaine in their possession.
Delodin was denied bail but was later granted his pre-trial liberty after applying to the High Court.
