In Rwanda, in the Nyamagabe district of the Southern Province, two men were arrested while transporting marijuana to a woman who is reportedly involved in selling it.
According to the news from the Umuseke.rw, on Thursday, August 7, 2025, around 3 PM, a man named Sinamenye Theoneste, aged 38, was caught with 3 kilograms of marijuana concealed on his body, wrapped under his clothes.
However, this attempt was unsuccessful because the Rwanda police arrested him and another man, his companion, named Rukara, who was also found carrying 3 kilograms of marijuana. It was revealed that these men were transporting the marijuana to a woman named Uwimana Chantal, aged 34, who is suspected of selling it. That woman has also been arrested, as reported by the Umuseke newspaper.
