SHEMROY Robertson, known as “Minutes,” was found guilty of aiding the commission of trafficking 1.174 kilograms of cannabis.
He was sentenced to two years in prison and fined $30,000 by Magistrate Fabayo Azore at the Vigilance Magistrate’s Court on Friday, August 8, 2025.
The conviction arose from a Customs Anti-Narcotics Unit (CANU) operation on June 17, 2021, during which officers intercepted a minibus at Ann’s Grove Public Road, East Coast Demerara (ECD), and arrested a suspect with the illicit drugs.

Robertson was later arrested on June 28, 2021, in connection with the bust.
Robertson has a history of previous arrests. On January 15, 2016, he was charged alongside another suspect for possession of 1.156 kilograms of cocaine.

While the other individual was released, Robertson was committed to stand trial in the High Court and granted bail of $600,000, with the matter still pending. He was also arrested and charged with three others on March 6, 2017, but the charges against him were later dropped.
