A MAN was granted $3,500 bail in a Magistrate’s Court yesterday after allegedly being found with 2.1 pounds of Indian Hemp.

Dodrick Connolly, 37, represented by Attorney Ernie Wallace, went before Magistrate Samuel McKinney on a charge of possession of dangerous drugs with intent to supply.

On August 15 in New Providence, Connolly was allegedly found by police with 2.1 lbs of Indian Hemp, a quantity of drugs with an estimated street value of $2,000.

In court he pleaded not guilty to the charge. When it came to Connolly’s bail application Mr Wallace asked that his client be given a nominal bail fee.

As there was no objection from Prosecutor Inspector Timothy Bain, Connelly was granted $3,500 bail with one surety.

Connolly’s trial is set for September 2.
