Two on narcotics charge denied bail
Two persons were yesterday denied bail by Magistrate Alan Wilson on separate incidents of trafficking in narcotics.
Emmanuel Persaud is accused of being in possession of eight grams of cocaine while at his Lot 116 Barr Street, Kitty home while Vivian Burton Norville was found with 270 grams of marijuana at his residence which is located at Lot 163 Alexander Street Kitty. They pleaded not guilty to the charges.
On October 5, ranks of the Anti Narcotics Unit acting on reliable information went to the addresses of the two defendants and conducted searches on their person and premises.
The police unearthed a packet with cocaine from the pocket of a shirt belonging to Persaud which was hanging in a closet while a quantity of leaves, seeds and stems suspected to be cannabis was found hidden in Norville’s bedroom.
The matters against the duo will be called again on October 11.
