Police destroy millions worth of illegal drugs

Drugs being destroyed

The Commonwealth of Dominica Police Force (CDPF) recently destroyed over $36.9 million worth of illegal drugs seized during various operations.

According to information from the CDPF Facebook Page, the drugs destroyed included marijuana valued at over $3 million and cocaine valued at over $33 million, totaling $36,968,668.

The post further stated that while most of these drugs were seized during the final quarter of 2024, some were from earlier operations and court cases that have since been concluded.

The destruction was carried out under the supervision of the Inspector of the Drug Department, who issued a stern warning to drug dealers, reaffirming the police force’s unwavering commitment to combating illegal drug activities.

Key stakeholders including the Director of the Drug Prevention Unit, Deputy Chief of Police, other senior officers, and members of the media attended the event.

The Facebook post added that the police force remains steadfast in its mission to maintain control over the drug situation in Dominica and ensure the safety and well-being of its citizens.

    I really thought Ganja was fully legalized in Dominica man. So you mean to tell me that Skerrit, Blackmore and others just legalized enough weed to destroy the minds of our young people instead of turning the weed into a billion dollar medical industry that would create jobs for those young boys they turned into Paros on the streets of Dominica? Man look trouble

    Where there are large quantities of illicit drugs there is a proliferation of guns and crimes. It is regime’s business to to try and eradicate both as crime does not discriminate.

    Every bit of all illegal drugs should be reduced to ashes.
