19.08.09
Two people have appeared in court over a plot to smuggle £62,000 worth of cannabis into the country through Manchester Airport.
Kris Carroll, 26, of Willesden, London, a painter and decorator, was remanded in custody last week after being charged along with Zoe Anderson, 30, of Neasden, London, a pub cleaner, for the attempted illegal importation of around 21.4 kilos of cannabis. Both arrived on a flight from Montego Bay, Jamaica. Ms Anderson was granted conditional bail.
Officers from the UK Border Agency searched their baggage and discovered the drugs concealed within rum boxes. The pair appeared at Manchester Magistrates’ Court on Friday but have yet to enter a plea. The case was adjourned until September 25.
