As the police continue the fight against drug traffickers, a New Amsterdam man who was caught at a popular drug block was jailed for three years after he was found in possession of two grams of cocaine.
The man, Ray Anthony, 24, of St John Street, New Amsterdam, appeared before Magistrate Adela Nagamootoo on Tuesday at the New Amsterdam Magistrate’s court and pleaded guilty to the charge of being in possession of the prohibited substance. He was arrested on Saturday.
The court was told that around 09:30 hours on the day in question, the police were on mobile patrol when they noticed the suspect walking on the street, acting in a suspicious manner.
He was stopped and searched and a Crazy Glue tube containing the cocaine was found in his right pants pocket.
