Accused of having drugs in Portlaoise

A man appeared in court accused of possession of drugs for sale or supply in Portlaoise. 

Lukasz Krol, 35, of 38 Oakleaf Place, Knockmay, Portlaoise was  accused of having cannabis at an address at Cherrygrove, Portlaoise on September 15 last.  

Garda Sergeant JJ Kirby said the drugs which were valued at €400 were found along with weighing scales. He asked for a lengthy remand due to delays caused by the backlog in having drugs tested. 

Judge Andrew Cody remended the accused on continuing bail to appear before Portlaoise District Court on March 4 for DPP directions.
