…warns citizens against illicit sale, use of narcotics
Kaieteur News – The Customs Anti Narcotic Unit (CANU) on Tuesday issued a stern warning to citizens against the illicit sale and use of narcotics ahead of an event dubbed “I Am Drugs.”
In a statement, the agency noted that it is aware of the circulation of an advertisement for a local event on social media platforms. The event is being hosted by Alonzo Greaves, former National Cyclist of Guyana and is to be held on Friday.
CANU reminded citizens that, “the use, sale, and distribution of illicit drugs is illegal, and persons discovered with illicit substances whether for personal use or for the purpose of trafficking would be prosecuted in accordance with the laws of Guyana-Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances act Chapter 10:10.”
