Man denies bringing more than £6,000 worth of cocaine into IOM

A UK man’s denied bringing more than £6,000 worth of cocaine into the Isle of Man.

Stefan Oliver Joseph Ball of Harborough Road in Billeson appeared before High Bailiff Jayne Hughes at Douglas Courthouse.

The 35 year old denies one count each of producing cocaine and possessing it with intent to supply at the Sea Terminal in Douglas on March 5.

He and another man stopped by police as they drove off the Ben My Chree, and a search of their silver BMW found just over 60 grammes of the drug.

A bail application was refused and Mr Ball was remanded in custody to appear again on April 12.
