Two men tried to import $50,000 of liquid cocaine concealed inside packages which were intercepted at the Airport, a Supreme Court jury heard yesterday.

Antwan Darrell, 35, and Phillip Michael DeSilva, 56, both from Sandys, deny importing the drug on January 11 and handling it with intent to supply on January 12.

Crown counsel Charlene Scott said Customs officers at the airport stopped the package after receiving information from US Customs officers.

The package was given to Police who examined it at the Scenes of Crimes office at Police headquarters at Prospect.

The package was marked Cougar Clocks, but when opened it was found to have two further packages, including a desk ornament and toy train containing brown liquid, said Ms Scott.

Government analyst Christine Quigley examined the liquid, which was found to weigh 110 grammes of 100 percent pure cocaine.

The containers were repackaged, resealed and delivered to an Arthur G Anderson of Rockywold Road, Sandys.

A delivery man took the package to the address, but when Police officers arrived Mr. Anderson was asleep and said the package, which was unopened, was not his.

Two other people came to the house, one of whom was DeSilva, said Ms Scott.

Crystal Rogers, a civilian being trained as a scenes of crimes officer, said she photographed the packages at Prospect in the presence of narcotics officer Sgt. Dennis Gordon and other drugs team officers.

She said inside one of the packages was a clear bag marked "US Customs'' with the name of the seizing officer, listing Mr. Anderson as the violator, and stating the substance was cocaine.

Under cross-examination from Darrell's lawyer, Mark Pettingill, Ms Rogers said she did not have any information about how the US Customs bag came to be in the package.

Mr. Pettingill said a red box, which was sealed by US Customs officers and was placed inside the package, either had to have been ripped or cut open.

Nya Rawlins, who last year was working for delivery company IBC, said he took the package to a house in Rockywold Road, which was signed for by G. Anderson.

When questioned by DeSilva's lawyer Elizabeth Christopher, Mr. Rawlins said the person who signed for the package did not ask any questions. Neither Darrell nor DeSilva signed for the package, he said.

The trial before Puisne Judge Vincent Meerabux continues today.
