Four officers have today received commendations from the Commissioner of Police Richard Ullger for a case that saw a man jailed for importing over £5 million of cannabis into Gibraltar.
A statement from the RGP follows below:
Detective Sgt Gerald Martinez, Police Sgt Lionel Gomez, Detective Constable Byron Shute and Detective Constable Daniel Caruana received the awards after their actions and investigation skills helped bring about a successful prosecution.
