Police seize pot

A 44-YEAR-OLD man living in the Gilaus subdivi- sion east of town faces pos- sible charges of marijuana cultivation after a search of his residence turned up a number of plants and grow- ing paraphemialia.

Based on information received from confidential sources, Terrace RCMP ex- ecuted a search warrant at the residence, at 4:30 p.m., July 25.

‘The search revealed 42 specialized Cannabis plants growing in the basement of the residence, in a green house, and hidden behind wooden screens in the yard, Officers also found a ijarge quantity of growing produc- ts, fertilizers, plant food and growing substances.

The seized planis were highly specialized “Mother” plants of dif- ferent varieties which are used for cloning ta produce the best possible product,

These high-producing clones have a very high commercial value once 4 grow operation has suffi- ciently progressed to allow regular trimmings for the clones, This operation was close to approaching that level.

Police say the man run- ning this operation was well versed in proper growing procedures and was very methodical in the care and nurturing of his crop.

Full production of the crop, according to conserva- tive RCMP estimates, would have netted the producer in excess of $50,000.

Moose shot, two fined

A FAMILY hunting trip wound up costing $3,000 more than expected because a moose wasn't given a fair shake,

Gary and Rob Charneski of Terrace pleaded guilty to hunting within six hours of being airborne in an aircraft.

Charges against the pair stem from a hunting trip into a remote lake near Dease Lake in 1994,

In Smithers provincial court two weeks ago, Judge RC.S. Grham fined the Chameskis $1,500 each for the offence,

Charges against a third family member, Adam Chameski, were stayed.

According to Smithers conservalion officer Peter Kalina, the hunters spotted a bull moose while flying to the lake and immediately set out to hunt it after landing.

Under the Wildlife Act, hunters arriving in a plane must wait at least six hours before picking up their guns aud chasing game,

“Whey you're fying in by air you get quite an ad- vantage of spotling game, obviously. It gives an unfair

advantage,’’ Kalina said.

In place for a number of years, the six-hour rule was introduced to allow game Spolled from the air a rea- sonable chance to move away, he explained.

“It actually brings back the hunting aspect of it,”

But prosecuting the six- hour law can prove chal- lenging given the remote circumstances of hunting.

But in this case, a conser- vation officcr happened to be on a hunting holiday at the lake the Charneskis flew

‘into and witnessed the whole thing,

Not only that, he caught it all on videotape.

“‘He happened to be in the right place at the right time when this particular incident happened,”’ he said.

“We got good evidence in this case.”’

The bull moose shot by the Chameskis was later seized in Terrace as part of the investigation.

Kalina said the case points the need for public vigilance when it comes to hunting offences.

‘Issue here is the move eyes the better. This stuff does happen, and it happens opportunistically and it hap- pens on purpose. It’s all to the detriment of the wild- life.’’
