The transshipment of narcotics through northern Belize, particularly via unregistered aircrafts landing on clandestine runways in the far reaches of the Orange Walk and Corozal Districts, continues unabated.  In most, if not all reported cases, the response of law enforcement personnel has been sluggish; with officers arriving at the scene of the destruction long after the illicit cargo flown into Belize has been discharged.  One civilian who identifies himself in the social media realm as Vincent Edwards, presumably an alias, is challenging the brass of the police department on its knowledge of the illegal landings.  Along with images of the cargo holds of aircrafts laden with bricks of drugs posted to his Facebook page, Edwards purports that the senior command probably knows more than it is letting off.  The posts have gone viral and some of it coincides with official information on recent landings. The information is unconfirmed but it begs the question, nonetheless, of inside knowledge of this activity.  In a previous interview with Junior Minister Elodio Aragon, the Minister of State for National Security admits that it’s a serious concern for the Government of Belize.
