Sat, 25 Oct 2014

Two men who police say were involved in a heroin syndicate in the north of the Island will be sentenced in December.

Ramsey men Scott Carbutt and David Bonnar appeared before the Court of General Gaol Delivery yesterday.

36-year-old Bonnar and 32-year-old Carbutt have both pleaded guilty to the four drugs charges against each of them.

Police arrested both men at the airport on October 14th - Carbutt was found to be internally concealing nine packages, eight of which contained heroin and one contained cocaine.

Social enquiry reports have been requested and the case has been adjourned until their next court appearance on December 15th.

There was no application for bail and both men have been remanded in prison.
