A foreign man charged with importing £50,000 worth of herbal cannabis at Shannon Airport on September 6th was yesterday remanded in custody to Ennis District Court on September 22nd.
Mr Stefanus Diederick Myburgh (40), from Johannesburg, was arrested at Shannon Airport after 22.7kg of the drug was found in his luggage.
Mr Gerry Flynn, the defendant's solicitor, told the court yesterday that Mr Diederick would not be seeking bail. The court was told the case would be heard at Ennis Circuit Court in October.
