TEENAGE boys who tried taking marijuana to their
school's end-of-term party were caught by MTS guards and arrested by
police on Tuesday.
Both were charged with drug trafficking.
The boys, aged 15 and 16, from Gran Couva and Orangefield, Central Trinidad, are pupils of the Waterloo High School.
They tried getting past the guard at 11 a.m., but were searched because they were acting suspiciously and were late for classes.
That night, a Justice of the Peace allowed the boys to go home after
their parents signed bonds to ensure they appeared in court. The boys
appeared before Chaguanas First Court Senior Magistrate Nanette
Forde-John yesterday.
They were not asked to plead since the charges are indictable.
The cases were adjourned to April 17.
