Inverness man makes no plea to drugs supply charges

Andrew Bell (37) was committed for further examination before being released on bail.

His appearance at Inverness Sheriff Court came after Police Scotland revealed yesterday that a quantity of herbal cannabis valued at around £60,000 had been recovered from a van stopped by officers in the Clachnaharry area of the city shortly before 7pm on Monday.

A four-figure sum of cash was also recovered from the vehicle.

Detective Inspector Peter Mackenzie said: “Our work relies on the support of the public who do not accept those intent on causing this damage to our communities.”
