Guardsman Limited has taken action against one of its contractors who is among persons being held in connection with the weekend’s massive cocaine bust in Jamaica.
The suspects were arrested on the weeekend after the police seized 66 kilograms of cocaine worth about J$264 million dollars in Montego Bay, St. James. Investigators believe the cocaine came from Colombia.
Guardsman has issued a statement confirming that late Saturday night one of its vehicles was searched by the police and the illicit drugs found.
The police subsequently apprehended two men, one of who is a Guardsman contractor, as they conduct further investigations into the matter.
Guardsman said it is in no way being investigated and the individual involved has been relieved of all duties until the probe is completed.
