Canadian arrested for suspected ganja at Kingston airport

A Canadian of Brampton, Ontario was arrested Sunday night at the Norman Manley International Airport in Kingston.

According to reports reaching Observer Online, the 20-year-old was held after two pounds of vegetable matter resembling ganja was found in his suitcase.

An investigation is ongoing.

The incident follows a cocaine bust at the airport in March when a British couple were arrested by the Firearms and Narcotics Investigation Division (FNID) after they were allegedly caught smuggling cocaine worth $92.7 million.
