On Wednesday 31 January, from around 10:00AM, the RCIPS conducted a joint operation with Public Lands Inspectorate (PLI) and partner agencies Customs and Border Control (CBC) and the Department of Commerce and Investment (DCI) to make vendor checks and identify any illegal activity, including drug use, at Seven Mile Public Beach.

During the operation, one man, a 21 year-old work permit holder, was arrested for Possession of Ganja and Suspicion of Consumption.  He was also ticketed by DCI for offenses under the Trade and Business Licensing Act (2021 Revision).   

In addition, a quantity of alcoholic beverages were seized by the PLI, belonging to other vendors who were operating illegally and fled the scene.

The RCIPS will continue working with our partner agencies in ongoing efforts to rid the public beaches of illegal activity.
