Duo face drug and money-laundering charges

A man and a woman from Douglas will appear in court again next month over drug dealing and money-laundering charges.

20 year old Ross James McWhinnie of Clifton Terrace and 41 year old Lisa Kim Barnett of Snaefell Road appeared before magistrates at Douglas Courthouse.

Mr McWhinnie is accused of two counts of possessing drugs with intent to supply, three of being unlawfully concerned in supplying drugs and one each of transferring criminal property, possessing criminal property and possessing drugs between June and October.

Miss Barnett faces one charge each of being concerned in supplying drugs and transferring criminal property.

Neither have entered pleas yet, and both will appear in court again on November 5.

Magistrates bailed Miss Barnett in the sum of £500 while Mr McWhinnie was remanded in custody.
