A Manorbier man, charged with possessing MDMA and cannabis with intent to supply, has pleaded not guilty to the charges.

Twenty-year-old Arthur John Brooker appeared before Haverfordwest magistrates, on Tuesday, charged with possessing 20 tablets of the drug known as MDMA with intent to supply, and possessing eight bags of cannabis, each containing 1.7 to 1.8 grammes of the drug, with intent to supply.

Magistrates declined jurisdiction of the case and told Mr. Brooker, who was released on unconditional bail, that he would have to appear at a preliminary hearing at Swansea Crown Court on February 15.
