Teenager admits smuggling two kilos of cannabis onto the Island

A 14 year old boy accused of burglary and breaching an ASBO has admitted smuggling two kilos of cannabis onto the Island.

The boy, who can’t be identified because of his age, appeared before magistrates at Douglas Courthouse via a live video link.

He admitted being concerned in producing cannabis on July 7, and the court heard a package had been intercepted containing the drugs.

There was no bail application and he was remanded into secure accommodation until his next court appearance on August 2.
