A Douglas man who admitted failing to turn up four times for community service work has been fined £100.

Ryan Ali Mahmoud El Meligy of Castle Street appeared before Deputy High Bailiff Jayne Hughes at Douglas Courthouse this week.

The court heard the 20 year old breached a community service order imposed after he admitted possessing cannabis - his arrest was featured on reality TV show TT Blues.

Mrs Hughes noted he still had just under 40 hours to complete out of a total of 180 imposed - she fined him and ordered him to pay £50 costs.

He was also ordered to complete the work.
