Guyanese Drug Smuggler Gets Time Served | Barbados News
Description
A Guyanese national, Collis Arlington Paul, has been released from prison after pleading guilty to smuggling over two kilograms of cocaine and cannabis into Barbados five years ago. Despite receiving multiple concurrent sentences, the judge granted him “time served” since he’s already spent more than five years in custody awaiting trial. Recognizing his cooperation, the lengthy legal process, and challenges faced by foreign nationals in prison, the court decided no further incarceration was warranted. Paul will now be deported to Guyana, bringing his legal ordeal to a close.
