A Huddersfield smuggler, who
claims he needs large amounts of cannabis for medicinal reasons,
pleaded guilty last Thursday to importing the drug.Aldwin Renardo Gooden, 44, (pictured) of Gilbert Grove, Crosland Moor was stopped by the UK Border Agency at Gatwick Airport after stepping off a flight from Jamaica.
He pleaded guilty at Croydon Crown Court to importing a quantity of herbal cannabis on October 4.
The court heard there is a dispute concerning the weight of the drugs because the packaging was included on the scales.
A Newton Hearing will take place on February 4 when Gooden will attempt to convince the court the several kilos of cannabis were for his personal use.
