The Drug Law Enforcement Agency (DLEAG) has said it will prosecute a soldier who was arrested with prohibited drugs in Busumbala.

DLEAG explained that the serving member of The Gambia Armed Forces (GAF) and ten other suspects were taken into custody for possession of suspected prohibited drugs.

“The military officer who was identified as one Seedy Camara was arrested at Busumbala on the 13 July 2022 around 19:10 hours GMT onwards with two bundles and 10 parcels of suspected cannabis sativa.

“He is presently in custody while an arrangement is being made to hand him over to the military police for the normal dekitting process as provided for in their TACOS and GAFA. Thereafter, he will be handed back to DLEAG for prosecution,” DLEAG said.
