The second man wanted in connection with one of two major drug busts in Kingston and Clarendon on Wednesday night remains at large.
Investigators placed a major dent in the multi-billion dollar drugs for guns trade between Jamaica and Haiti when they seized ganja in excess of 900 pounds in the operations. The five persons, including a Trinidadian arrested in the second bust in the Kennedy Grove Housing Scheme in Clarendon have not been charged. Spokesman for Operation Kingfish Detective Sergeant Jubert Llewellyn said the men are still being interrogated. Detective Sergeant Llewellyn said the drugs seized have been taken to the Narcotics Headquarter.\ Four hundred pounds of cured ganja was recovered in Clarendon. The Police also seized diving equipment and two vehicles. Investigators theorise that plans were being made to place the drugs on a ship at Port Esquivel in Clarendon.
