Second man held on drugs charges

A LIVERPOOL man has been remanded in custody for the second time after appearing private at Lerwick Sheriff Court on Tuesday facing drug dealing charges.

David Garnett, aged 39, of Lawrence Road, Liverpool, made no plea or declaration and was fully committed for trial.

Garnett was the second Liverpool man to be arrested during a police operation at Lerwick’s Holmsgarth ferry terminal last month when Class A drugs estimated to be worth £21,500 were seized.

Thomas Mcaleavey, aged 47, of Wye Street, Liverpool, was released on bail when he appeared for the second time at Lerwick Sheriff Court last Friday. He too made no plea or declaration and was fully committed for trial.
