British DJ jailed for four years for possession of marijuana

Dubai: A well-known British DJ has been jailed for four years for illegally bringing in and possessing marijuana.

The 40-year-old disc jockey was sentenced by the Dubai Court of First Instance and would be deported after serving his sentence.

The DJ, who had traveled to Dubai to play a set, had previously told the court he did not know the drugs were in his possession and that he had no intention of bringing it to Dubai.

He was arrested at Dubai Airport on November 23, 2007, when a small transparent sack containing 2.16 grams of marijuana was found in his luggage.

Bye Bye Rider

That's a damn shame. Violence against women has shorter sentences in Dubai this these stupid charges. The guy fucked up, he knows that, but 4 years? Wow. The last time I saw Grooverider was in London 4 years ago. He had played Through the Gates by AI on dub and just killed it.

Dumbass. You don't travel with drugs... and you DEFINITELY don't do it in a country in the Middle East or Asia. I think 4 years is a long time, but not by their standards... so he got what he deserved.

Definitely - 4 years is harsh, but in the general scheme of things it's not outrageous. Hell, that would be a death sentence in Malaysia. Dude really ought to have checked his luggage a little more closely before playing with fire, and as someone who traveled a lot, he definitely should have known better.

yep. He got off good if you ask me.

This guy is a perfect example of what a lot of people think of 'stoners'. What an idiot.
