Road Accident on Nicolay Road: Driver Found Positive for Drugs and Alcohol Attempts to Conceal Drug Package

Ahmad Ayman B, a 27-year-old involved in the accident that claimed the life of 24-year-old Dylan Rummun early Saturday morning, is currently in custody. The resident of Quatre-Bornes tested positive for both alcohol and drug screening. Furthermore, during the investigation into the accident, authorities discovered that the driver attempted to hide a package of drugs immediately after the crash. A bag containing a substantial amount of drugs was found in the bushes near the accident site.

Dylan Rummun died instantly in this violent crash. Three young women were in the car, one of whom was 17 years old. Two were placed under observation, while the third passenger had left the scene before the police arrived.

Chief Inspector Muhammad of the Plaine-Verte police station and his team reviewed surveillance footage to clarify the circumstances of the accident. They observed the driver exiting the car, opening the trunk, and handing a bag to one of the passengers, asking her to hide it. She moved towards a bush a few meters from the accident site. The police searched the bushes and found the bag, which contained a transparent pouch with dried leaves suspected to be cannabis, and another package with additional dried leaves. Confronted with this discovery, the driver confirmed that it was indeed the bag in question. "Yes, miss, that package is not mine, it belongs to someone else. I had to hide it because I was already in trouble from the accident," the young man reportedly admitted. DNA samples were taken. The package weighed 362 grams, with a market value of Rs 552,000. The driver remains in custody and will face preliminary charges of involuntary manslaughter, driving under the influence, testing positive for drugs, and drug trafficking in court on Monday, January 26. The statements from the passengers in this investigation are pending. Dylan Rummun was seated in the passenger seat at the time of the violent crash and did not survive his injuries.
