Ganja found on beach in Vieille Case

Dominica News Online can confirm that over 500 lbs of cannabis were seized by police on a beach in Vieille Case on Saturday morning.

It is believed that the cannabis was imported from a nearby Caribbean island.

According to reports, the police got information about the marijuana from an anonymous individual who claimed that the illegal drug was just “sitting on the beach”.

No arrest has been made so far but police are said to be investigating the matter.

    Yea … To the person that said that cocaine comes from a plant just like weed. Cocaine is a highly processed substance whereas weed in a plant in its natural form , making them highly different. Marijuana is no more of a drug than other plant. And also. Coca leaves themself are not an illegal substance, only after processing does it become a drug. Get ur facts straight before u call people fools. Ur simply displaying ur ignorance …

    Well the Police recovered a stash of cocaine and made five arrests which is very good. They then recovered five hundred pounds of marihuana from a beach. At least we can see that they are doing their job and protecting the community. I do not believe that anyone have to import marihuana to Dominica but that marihuana was waiting to be pick up by a boat to be transported to some where else. The cocaine is another issue and the Police must find out who brought this drug to Dominica. So let us say thanks to the officer who risk their life everyday to protect the community because where ever there are drug violence always follows. We also must remember that Political parties change but the Police will be there. (Love from New York)

    This report is very confusing. 1st, it was found on the beach (sounds like it was brought on shore by the waives) 2nd, 500lbs seized by the police on the beach (how do you seize something on or from the beach?)3rd, It’s believed that it was imported from a nearby caribbean island (if they know where it originated from, then it seems like a confession was made by the person(s)involved and therefore I wonder why it was found on the beach. #4, With all this information that’s given, then why has an arrest not been made?

    Some very interesting comments Dominicans, very interesting I don’t know if DNO will not sanction my comments again, but what I have to say it I hope The Powpow will not use it the same way the Criminals? intended to use it because it appears that when the powpow an their bosses break the law they are not criminals, but when other citizens do they are?What you say DNO? are you going to post my comments? or it goes against you “POLICY? Have a nice day people of Dominicans, keep commenting the world is watching!

    In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

    I believe there needs to be a reassessment as to how marijuana is dealt with in Dominica.

    Firstly, burning and spraying marijuana plantations is the most retarded thing any law agency can do. Marijuana is a natural plant and there is a reason and wisdom for the creation of the marijuana plant by All Mighty Allah.

    Secondly, smoking marijuana is an intoxicant. It makes you “charge” and “high” thus this is clearly FORBIDDEN by divine law. A plant that gives you blood shot eyes and does these negative things to one’s body should not be used like this. Simply because a plant is natural does not give the right to ingest or smoke it. There is are poisonous plants in Dominica, if you inhale some of these plants whilst it is burnt in a closed area it is worst than a gas chamber. Does that mean it is permissible to use this plant for smoking purposes? The answer is no! The idea that marijuana is natural equals okay to smoke it is flawed reasoning.

    Marijuana should be used for scientific research and medicinal purposes to treat diseases such as glaucoma and other bronchial diseases rather than many pharmaceutical drugs which have serious side effects.

    Another case in point is the double standard and hypocrisy that plagues the Dominican society. Why is it that packs upon packs of cigarettes are legal? Why do we continue to follow the dictates of Tobacco Companies to destroy ourselves? Why do we allow cigarettes to be exported here? We know the thousands of dangerous chemicals inhaled in one puff of cigarette smoke. We know the mortality rate from cigarette smoke, recently in Europe a ban was placed on smoking cigarettes in public places. Look at the evils of alcohol yet we continue to sell and consume them. Thus to fine a man $500 for one joint and to allow alcohol and cigarettes to flourish is downright filthy and unjust! The youth must address these corrupt and unjust practices in sha Allah (if God wills)

      Did you forget when they killed Osama, they found Marijuana growing all around the compound where he was hiding?
      What about all the poppy plants that you brothers plant in Afghanistan TO MAKE ALL THIS DANGEROUS HEROINE that is much more highly toxic than Marijuana and killing more youths around the world.

    @ mind your bzness

    do u know what a snitch is??? apparently not… lemme explain… the ‘no snitching’ code… italians have the omerta etc… is a code for criminals.. not law abiding civilians… the code is only for those involved with each other in the business… legal or not… so u and jack did a seen…. jack got caught… during interrogation jack sell u also… he snitched… or vice versa… in another scenario jack did a robbery and u happened to pass and saw jack in the act… and u called cops… this is not snitching… this is community watch… law abiding citizens must not get themselves caught in a law that don’t have nothing to do with them… in other words ‘we’ must not even think of such a law… and believe me (to all involved in criminal activity) the partner u drink with will tell on u b4 any law abiding citizen… trust that… so someone came to your neighbour hood and did a crime or killed your gang member…. “if u aint gone do shit then u gotta call the cops… u don’t call the cops only if u gon handle that shit yourself” that was for them g’s… word up.. so a guy shoots your gangmember plus u too chicken to do shit and you aint gon tell the cops anonymously who did that.. most of ya’ll don’t understand that code… that’s why we got dudes doing hard times for things they didn’t do…”oh i’m not snitching’ and funny thing is ur partner who did it isn’t gone man up and take responsibility… or worse yet the dude u don’t even know but u taking time for him… most of you all got that ‘no snitching’ thing twisted…
