The sentencing of the British man who admitted to having 2.5 kilogrammes of cocaine at Argyle International Airport on Wednesday has been adjourned to Thursday.
Warren-Lee Davies was initially slated to be sentenced on Monday at the Serious Offences.
However, the prosecutor, Inspector of Police Renrick Cato, requested an adjournment.
He noted that Davies is a non-national, adding that there is some information that could help the court with sentencing the defendant.
The prosecutor said that information should be in hand by Thursday and asked for an adjournment until then.
Defence counsel, Grant Connell, noted that the prosecutor did not give “too much detail as to what they want”.
The lawyer, however, did not object to the adjournment.
Chief Magistrate Colin John adjourned the matter to Thursday and further remanded Davies in prison until then.
Police have said that Davies was nabbed with the drug in a suitcase at Argyle International Airport as he was preparing to board a flight to the United Kingdom.
He appeared before the Kingstown Magistrate’s Court on Friday and pleaded guilty to charges of cocaine possession and attempted exportation.
Young man I hope you will learn your lesson.
I am terribly sorry you have to go through such an ordeal. I am quite sure there are accomplices in this matter.
Why in a foreign land? Where did you get it from?
SPEAK UP… SAY IT OUT LOUD!
Rot in a foreign prison for years.
Look for the seller and persecute as well. The Bristish man has nothing to lose.
