large amount of marijuana at the airport.

The three, all believed to be Bermudian, were arrested on Monday after the drugs were discovered at the cargo terminal.

Neither Police nor Customs were willing to disclose the value of the drugs and both said the investigation was on-going.

Ch. Insp. Larry Smith, the head of the narcotics division, said a report on VSB news that one of those arrested was the son of a prominent Police officer was untrue.

He said yesterday: "There was a large seizure. The inquiry is still on-going and they could be in court tomorrow.''
