Shellon Barrow, who is accused of plotting to smuggle almost four pounds of cocaine out of the country last year, on Wednesday denied having knowledge of the narcotic and implicated her alleged co-conspirator, Latoya Griffith, during sworn testimony.
Barrow, a vendor of 135 Victoria Street, Albouystown, and Griffith, a hairdresser of Lot 38 Norton Street, Georgetown, are currently on trial before Principal Magistrate Faith McGusty in Georgetown.
Barrow, 38, is charged with trafficking 1.638 kilogrammes (equivalent to 3.6 pounds) of cocaine on September 15th at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport, Timehri, while Griffith, 37, was alleged to have aided Barrow to traffic 1.638 kilogrammes of cocaine between September 14th and September 15th at Sunset Hotel, Kitty.
