ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI - At least two persons were questioned by police in relation to a quantity of marijuana reportedly found in an air freshener can that arrived in the Territory on a ferry on August 15, 2020.

According to reports reaching our newsroom, officers of Her Majesty’s Customs had searched a sealed package when the illegal substance was discovered.

It is alleged that when the package was being cleared at the Road Town Ferry dock there was a strong scent observed. This caused law enforcement authorities to become suspicious.

Officers awaited the arrival of a female to whom the package was addressed to and she was taken into custody and questioned.

It is alleged that she told police the can was sent for her brother and she was not aware of the content. Her brother was also questioned and he too reportedly denied knowledge.

Police are still investigating.

      Until it's legal, it is illegal and you should know that. Now why would they need to smuggle it in, when they can
      still illegally, grow it in pots in their house? what a stupid thing to go to jail for, and I don't believe they didn't know. They think people need air freshener sent to them here? SMDH!

    How long are the controllers of the planet going to keep this slavery legislation going. Its nothing more than disenfranchising the indigenous peoples of the world so that the artificial material Babylonian System can dominate. We are sick of this bullshit and all the evil that it engenders. Covid 19 being the latest manifestation. All these rich fools are nothing more than criminals. They exist by sucking the lifeblood of the poor and helpless. Time to stop talking about Black Lives Matter and take a stand. Open your eyes and see how you are bound. These preachers are nothing more than false prophets working for the Beast System...the truth is showing.

    None of them packed the box. Even if they knew the set up, the shipment did not travel with them. A good case to fight. You cam ask somebody to make a purchase for me and that person can set you up and put an illegal sjbsyanxr in the package. Your name is on it but you did not place the items nor put them on the ferry.

    When the ferry operators start making people open their packages before loading them on the ferry you all will find fault of that but this is ridiculous.

    In 2020 there should be no need to smoke and hide. Do cigarette smokers hide, do alcohol users hide. I respectfully submit that its more about suppressing the culture of indigenous people than anything else. Time to cast away this evil spell.
