The Magistrate’s Court on Wednesday handed a year’s jail for sentence to a drugs offender after he was caught using methylamphetamine while under a supervision programme.
Mohamad Ade Erwandie bin Marikan was ordered into the programme on May 16 for suspected involvement in drug-related activities. The defendant was arrested on November 21 along with three others at his house in Tutong, following a raid by the Narcotics Control Bureau.
Authorities found cash and crystal substances, which were found to be methylamphetamine.
The defendant and others admitted that the cash were proceeds from the sales of drugs and that they all have been consuming the same Class A drug. – Fadley Faisal
