Airport Customs finds weed in FedEx package
Customs officers at the Terrance B Lettsome International Airport have discovered cannabis in a FedEx package that was sent from the United States, our news centre has been told.
BVI News understands that the weed was discovered earlier this week. Our news centre hasn’t been able to determine the exact weight of the drugs but our sources confirm that it was under two kilograms.
Reports are that Customs officers became suspicious because of the strong smell that emanated when they were handling the package.
The police were alerted and after conducting examinations, the substance was found to be cannabis.
Our news centre further understands that the contact number listed on the package went unanswered when called.
In the meantime, it isn’t clear whether the police have held anyone in connection to the find.

Why not let it through and wait until it was collected ?
Because that would require common sense and progressive thinking! Makes one want to cry – could have been such an easy catch! My God!
All they had to do was act as if everything was going smooth, let the contact sign and pick up the package and nab him/her. They would have easily know who the BVI CONTACT AND THE US CONTACT IS. Trust me, both parties phones is at the bottom of the SEA IN THE BVI AND AT THE BOTTOM OF A LAKE OR RIVER IN THE US. MERRY CHRISTMAS.
The names are on the Airway Bill and they still can be found.
They couldn’t. It was going to a police officer. Oops.

If the Governor had not delayed the Cannabis legislation, they would have been able to grow their own by now. That must be lost investment the Premier keeps banging on about
Hmm oh well the Commissioner woman from the Ghut son had drugs come through the mail also and up to now, he wasn’t charged.

Cannabis is still smuggled illegally? Is there a better use of cannabis than for medicinal purposes?
