A US citizen denied importing more than $1 million worth of drugs with intent to supply.

Christopher McIver, 60, pleaded not guilty yesterday to the importation of cocaine, cannabis, a substance containing THC, and diamorphine — also known as heroin — to the island.

He also denied four counts of having them with intent to supply.

The alleged offences, the Supreme Court heard, were said to have happened on November 9 last year.

The drugs alleged to have been found have an estimated total value of $1,213,856.

Mr McIver, from Arizona, was scheduled to reappear on February 1 and was remanded in custody until then.

The case was one of three drug-related cases to come through this month’s arraignment’s session and result in not guilty pleas.

Kanhai Fray, 36, denied conspiring with others between an unknown date and August 28, 2018 to import cannabis to Bermuda.

He also pleaded not guilty to possession of cannabis with intent to supply.

The cannabis alleged to have been found on Mr Fray was said to have been 6.238 kilograms, with a total street value of $311,905.

Mr Fray will return on December 1 to set a date for his trial.

Radcliff Brown, 54, a Canadian, also denied the importation of cannabis and possession of cannabis with intent to supply.

The alleged incident was said to have happened on March 13.

The cannabis was said to have an estimated street value between $977,800 and $1.95 million.

Mr Brown, from Mississauga in Ontario, will next appear in court on January 2.
