Farmer, fisherman arrested on drug trafficking charges

A farmer of Campden Park and a fisherman of Clare Valley have been arrested and charged with drug trafficking and drug possession.

According to a police report, Kenvert Pierre, 40 and Khalil Robin, 25 were arrested on May 16 at 8:26 pm, at Barrouallie, when they were found to have in their possession 13,909 grammes of cannabis with intent to supply to another.

The men were also charged with having in their possession 13,909 grammes of cannabis for the purpose of drug trafficking. Pierre and Robin were also charged with having agreed with each other that the course of conduct shall be pursued, which, if the agreement was carried out in accordance with their intent, will necessarily amount to or involve the commission of the offence of drug trafficking.

The men were expected to appear before the Serious Offences Court last Friday to answer the charge.
