JAMAICAN Dwight Johnson has been remanded in custody after admitting a string of drugs offences.
The 23-year-old and Emma Toddington, 22, were both charged with possessing heroin and crack cocaine with intent to supply.
But Toddington, of The Heights, Okus, pleaded not guilty to both charges and the prosecution offered no evidence.
Johnson, of no fixed abode, pleaded guilty to two charges of possessing heroin with intent and two similar charges relating to cocaine.
The court heard that while he has no previous convictions in his native West Indies he has over stayed his visa and so is likely to be deported back to Jamaica.
Judge John McNaught adjourned the case for four weeks for pre-sentence reports to be prepared on Johnson.
