    Congratulations to the police force for confiscating this amount of poison off the streets and also apprehending the perpetrators. Continue to fight this war against crack, cocaine and other illicit, mind altering drugs. Let it be known that Dominica would not become a home nor a transshipment point for these dangerous, illegal commodities.

    28 keys. not a bad flip. If is anything like the time they had caught the them man from the south east area with 27 keys (no name no warrant – Friends of people in high places) then nothing may come out of it. all now them man rehired by government in various ministries and life goes on.
