KINGSTOWN, St. Vincent, CMC- Chief Magistrate Colin John has postponed to Thursday the sentencing of a British national, who pleaded guilty to the possession of 2.5 kilograms of cocaine at the Argyle International Airport last week.
Warren-Lee Davies was initially scheduled to be sentenced on Monday at the Serious Offences Court. Still, the prosecution requested an adjournment, stating that new information could be helpful to the court in sentencing the British national.

The prosecution said that the information should be available by Thursday and asked for an adjournment until then.
Defence counsel, Grant Connell, said that while the prosecutor did not give “too much detail as to what they want”, he, however, did not object to the adjournment.
Chief Magistrate John adjourned the matter to Thursday and further remanded Davies in prison.
Police have said that Davies was arrested after the drug was found in his suitcase as he was preparing to board a flight to the United Kingdom.
He appeared before the Kingstown Magistrate’s Court last Friday and pleaded guilty to charges of cocaine possession and attempted exportation.
