FOLLOWING a Customs Anti-Narcotics Unit (CANU) investigation into a Queen’s College student being found with ecstasy, a 25-year-old Alberttown businessman was on Friday charged for selling ecstasy to an under- aged boy and also possession of drugs.
Dorel John appeared before Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan and was released on $170,000 bail after denying the two charges.
Particulars of the first charge stated that John between December 1, 2017 and January 31, 2018 at Middle Road, La Penitence, Georgetown, sold ecstasy to an under-aged child.

According to reports, the child was held with the drug and when the matter was reported, a raid was conducted at John’s home and ecstasy was found in his bedroom.
The matter was adjourned until February 22.
