Probation granted for Indian hemp possession

By PAVEL BAILEY

A MAN was placed on six months probation for a drug-related charge in a Magistrate’s Court yesterday.

Ricardo Sifort, 18, appeared before Senior Magistrate Samuel McKinney on a charge of possession of dangerous drugs.

On May 10 in New Providence, Sifort was arrested after being found with two grams of Indian Hemp.

In court, Sifort pleaded guilty to the charge.

As the accused has no prior convictions, Magistrate McKinney ordered Sifort to behave during a six-month probation period.

Failure to comply will result in a $300 fine or one month in prison.
