And in an update to another story we ran on Friday, Police Constable Darrell Swazo, the officer assigned to the DPP's Office who was caught with 2 kilos of marijuana is out of bail tonight, after he was arraigned in Belmopan Magistrate's Court today.

As we reported, Swazo, who works with the DPP's Office in the Case Care Unit, left the DPP's Office on Friday morning to track down a witness, but he was busted with another man in a Mitsubishi Eclipse with the Marijuana at around 3 that afternoon.

The officers at a checkpoint in Santa Elena stopped the car and discovered the weed in the back of the car.

He was charged with drug trafficking, and he was arraigned today where he was granted bail of $6,000 which he was able to meet.
