Powen- a Bajan seh dis

On a single flight ( Caribbean Airlines) from JAMAICA.

So far 10 have passed the contraband...the other 10 are still at Accident and Emergency.

NO WOMEN were seen by reporters among those apprehended.

Those interviewed said they were coming in especially to "supply" for the Rihanna concert.

tsk tsk tsk.

Yardies using Trini transport to frig up BIM...

who says theres no unity in the Caribbean.

financially speaking tho...the jokers shoulda use REDJET and save at least 60% of that Airfare X 20

The headline is misleading,if ten people were not charged then only ten were arrested.
It would be nice to know why the ten that were released were suspects?
Even if all the people arrested are Jakans,that does not give Barbados right to abuse(alleged finger rape..and many more troubling accounts from....)Jakans and the blatant attempt of cover up by its officials

The only remaing question is if the young lady was violated by the custom agents,she certainly was by Barbados' govt.

Regarding Trinidad,the activity in question did not pose a risk to passengers,my advice is be more concerned about airplane crashes,and try harder to have that safety record AJ was known for.

The Royal Barbados Police Force says the quick action of law-enforcement officials led to the apprehension of 10 drug mules yesterday, eight of whom are Jamaicans.
The 10 were among a group of 20 people who were initially held by authorities after arriving in Barbados on Wednesday evening on a flight from Jamaica.

Public relations officer for the police force, Inspector David Welch, told The Gleaner/Power 106 News Centre yesterday that all 20 were interviewed and 10 were suspected of carrying contraband.

Welch said they were taken to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital under police guard where X-rays revealed that they had ingested pellets of marijuana.
He said drug charges would be laid against them once they are released from hospital.

Continuous flow
He added that authorities are concerned about what he said is a continuous flow of non-nationals into Barbados.

"Yes, we are seeing Jamaicans, but not only Jamaicans ... other nationals as not only swallowers, but they usually have drugs in their luggage and about their bodies," Welch said when asked about the involvement of Jamaicans in drug smuggling into Barbados.

He noted that on the same day the eight Jamaican drug smugglers had arrived in the island, two of their countrymen were each sentenced to three years' imprisonment for drug trafficking after pleading guilty.
They are 27-year-old Mario Timon Myers from Albany, in St Mary, and Michael Washington Burke, 52, of Kingston 11.

The police said both men had arrived on July 26 and were held on suspicion of trafficking drugs.

The police said they were taken to hospital where Myers passed out 54 taped bags of cannabis weighing two and a half pounds and Burke passed out 98 taped packages of cannabis, also weighing two and a half pounds.
