Today, an officer from the Antigua and Barbuda Defence Force (ABDF) and her brother, who is employed in the Immigration Department, are set to reappear in court to address charges related to drug possession.
The siblings were charged with possession of marijuana following a police raid on their residence this past Saturday.
Their initial court appearance occurred on Monday, but the proceedings were adjourned until today as the prosecution requested additional time to prepare its case.
Acting Chief Magistrate Dexter Wason has granted both individuals no-cash bail, amounting to $10,000.00, with the condition of providing one surety each.
During the search of their home, law enforcement officials uncovered 2.3 grams of marijuana, leading to the charges of illegal possession against the pair.
Sounds fishy. The police were stalking these individuals? Do these people have a history criminal activity?
