Liverpool man admits his part in bringing drugs into the Island

A Liverpool man's admitted his part in smuggling thousands of pounds worth of cocaine and cannabis to the Island.

Paul Joseph Rowan of Darwall Road in Garston appeared before Deputy High Bailiff Rachael Braidwood at Douglas Courthouse.

The 34 year old pleaded guilty to two counts of being concerned in producing cocaine and one of being concerned in producing cannabis in March and July 2020.

The court heard he'd been involved in bringing 120 grammes of cocaine and almost a kilo of cannabis to the Island.

Mrs Braidwood committed him to the Court of General Gaol Delivery for sentencing and remanded him in custody until he appears in the higher court on December 8.
