The T&T Prison Service has confirmed that a package dropped by a drone at the Port of Spain Prison has been confiscated.
In a statement on Facebook, it notes that there has been a video recording showing the drone being piloted over the facility on Sunday morning.
Acting Commissioner of Prisons Deopersad Ramoutar said the package had 269 grams of plant-like material.
He added that drones have been a challenge for the Prison Service and other agencies but noted that measures have been implemented.
These include regular searches and patrols and other counter-measures.
