Trad musician from Dublin jailed over cannabis offences

A traditional Irish musician who travelled around to various festivals in his camper van was caught with €41,000 worth of cannabis resin.

The 57-year-old Dubliner who admitted having the cannabis for sale or supply in Mayfield and at Kyrl’s Quay, Cork, was sentenced to six years with the last three-and-a-half suspended.

Judge David Riordan imposed that sentence on Henry Nolan of 391, Ballyfermot Road, Dublin, at Cork Circuit Criminal Court.
