Eleven men were apprehended and transported to the Anna Regina Police Station after police at 70KM, a location off Buckhall-Barama Company, found an AK-47 rifle in a truck that was heading into the Interior.
According to reports, police did a stop and search shortly before midnight, Tuesday night, and found the weapon in the truck. It was reportedly in a bag.
Twenty-two-year-old Joel Joseph, of Bartica, has since admitted to being the owner of the gun. The police said that there were 12 matching rounds.
Joseph was traveling in a truck, which was headed for Melagie, a location in the interior.
Robberies are known to be prevalent in the interior locations. However emphasis is not placed on checking bush trucks that frequent the interior.
An official at Barama Company said that the company is aware of reports of trucks entering the interior locations transporting people who are bent on staging robberies on miners.
