On Friday, over five hundred pounds of marijuana and one hundred and seventy grams of cocaine were discovered in Dangriga. At around six a.m. police carried out an investigation inside three structures, inside which they found a deep freeze and several containers of drugs. Police have since detained Slovakian national, Ladislav Liptak and three Belizean nationals. We spoke with Commissioner of Police Chester Williams for an update on this discovery.

“I don’t know if he has met bail, but as I had said to the media before, we had an investigation involving him. Witnesses came forward, provided statements to the police, which was sufficient for us to be able to get sufficient evidence to charge him, and he was charged.”
