Student charged with having over €6,000 worth of cannabis in Cork

The defendant was charged with having cannabis and having the drug for the purpose of sale or supply to others.

The Director of Public Prosecutions directed that a student accused of having over €6,000 worth of cannabis and money-laundering €3,700 could have his case dealt with at district court level but only on a plea of guilty.

Garda Kevin O’Neill outlined the allegations in the case so that Judge Olann Kelleher could decide if he too would accept jurisdiction to hear the case at Cork District Court.
