– Colleague admits to selling his share
Kaieteur News – A Customs Anti-Narcotic (CANU) rank has reportedly excreted two pieces of diamonds he stole from a Surinamese man.
The ranks identified as Jamine Goddard and one of his colleagues, Annick Hossanah was arrested for stealing the man’s diamonds during a CANU operation in Corentyne Berbice. The two ranks had detained the foreign national after finding an illegal gun in his possession. When they brought him to CANU headquarters in Georgetown, the detainee reported that they stole his diamonds.
Following an investigation by police, it was learnt that Goddard had swallowed his share of the diamonds and Hossanah sold his.

Meanwhile, CANU’s Head James Singh in a press release stated, “These officers made their choices, their actions do not reflect that of our organization” while adding that his agency remains committed to carrying out its mandate and combating drug trafficking.
