Three Jamaicans, who were nabbed Friday night by police as they allegedly attempted to smuggle more than 550 pounds of ganja onto a South Sound beach in Cayman, were remanded when they appeared in court yesterday.
Forty-two year-old Ceaphus Reynolds, 45-year-old Eyon Johnson and Linton Pallarchie, 36, were charged with importation of ganja, possession with intent to supply, and illegal landing.
The men were remanded until their next appearance on October 16.
The police caught the men after several reports were called into 911 about the arrival of a canoe and suspicious activity in the beachfront neighbourhood, a well populated residential area.
The men attempted to flee but were tracked by the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service Joint Marine Unit and a police helicopter. The police seized the boat and drugs.
