Peel teen caught with more than £500 worth of cannabis

17-year-old was on bail at the time for earlier drug offences

A teenager from Peel will be sentenced at the Court of General Gaol Delivery after being caught with more than £500 worth of cannabis.

Oshin Lynch, of Stanley Mount, was on bail for other offences when police found the substance during a search of his home on 20 July.

During an appearance at Douglas Courthouse the 17-year-old admitted possessing 27 grams of cannabis with intent to supply and having £320 of criminal cash.

Lynch had previously pleaded guilty to being concerned in the supply of the drug, between October 2022 and February 2023, and possessing the Class B substance with intent to supply it on 23 February.

A social enquiry report has been requested before Lynch is sentenced; he’s been bailed until his next court appearance on 17 November.
