Six hundred thousand dollars worth of marijuana was seized on board the Cabo Star as the vessel docked in Tobago on Sunday.

Officers observed three crocus bags, two white and one orange, on a wooden pallet with objects protruding from them which aroused their  suspicion.

They then conducted a search, finding 13.162kg of marijuana.

This exercise was co-ordinated by ASP Joseph, spearheaded by Sgt Stewart, supervised by Cpl Moses,  and performed by officers attached to the Tobago  Divisional Task Force and Canine Unit.

The officers kept the bags under their observation however, no one claimed them.

The find was taken to the Scarborough Police Station for processing.
