Bahamian drug dealers are reportedly furious with the DEA and US officials here for pushing ahead so strongly with their bid to extradite top local drug lords. And US sources have alleged that drug dealers have been plotting to “teach the US a lesson not to interfere so much in the Bahamas’ affairs”.
The arms stash included three AK-47 rifles, five hand grenades and bullets. Bahamian and US cops arrested four persons in Miami for the arms. Not long ago, the DEA uncovered an alleged plot by jailed drug lord Dwight Major to try to buy a rocket propelled grenade (RPG) launcher. Major allegedly planned to fire the RPG at the US Ambassador’s house here in the Bahamas.
