Man jailed for £300,000 Aberdeen drugs haul
- Published
A man has been jailed after drugs worth more than £300,000 were seized in Aberdeen.
Gas engineer Adrian Greedy, 36, admitted being concerned in the supply of cannabis.
He was caught after initially trying to flee from detectives in the city's Great Northern Road in May 2022.
Greedy was jailed for three years and two months at the High Court in Glasgow.
Prosecutor Kirsten Cockburn said officers first seized three bags of cannabis that Greedy had tried to dispose of.
A further haul was then discovered in a van he had keys for.
His then home in the Bridge of Don area of Aberdeen was also searched along with a vehicle. Cash was found along with notes believed to be linked to the delivery of drugs.
A total of 19 vacuum-sealed bags of cannabis were found after Greedy was held. The haul had a potential street value of £316,700.
Judge Lord Clark said Greedy had expressed remorse for his actions, but that a prison term had to be imposed.
