Around £1500 worth of class A drugs were found inside a Glasgow home that was raided by cops.

Police turned up at a flat in Arden, where Daniel McGowan was living, on June 2, 2020.

At 5pm, officers gained entry to the property to escalate a drug search warrant.

McGowan, 35, was inside along with three others.

At Glasgow Sheriff Court this week, prosecutor Jennifer Sillars said: “Police informed all occupants they were in possession of a drugs warrant and explained the property would be searched.

“The accused freely stated, ‘I have stuff in cupboards’, ‘I have issues with coke and green, this is all my stuff’, ‘I have a drugs issue, all the stuff here is mine’.

“At 5.15pm a search was commenced. Two bags containing white powder were seized from kitchen cupboards.”

The court heard that one bag contained 66.5 grams of white powder – which later tested positive for cocaine.

Meanwhile, the other bag contained 3.5g.

The drugs had an estimated street value of £1500.

Cops also found a silver spoon with traces of white powder on it and a set of digital scales.

McGowan was cautioned and charged, and replied: "It’s not for supply."

His lawyer said: “The charge was accepted as social supply.

“He had issues with cocaine and speaks very openly about this. He tells me this morning he no longer uses cocaine. The last time was eight months ago.

“He’s trying very hard to get on the straight and narrow. He has nothing outstanding and he’s currently in full-time employment.

“He truly does present as someone who is and has been making positive changes. He does not have any experience of custody. He’s in a position to pay a financial penalty and he expresses willingness to undertake unpaid work.”

Sheriff Shona Gilroy said: “It’s a very serious offence, there’s no doubt about that. It’s quite clear he has changed his life quite considerably which is encouraging.

“I’m content I can deal with this by a community-based disposal.”

McGowan was ordered to carry out 200 hours of unpaid work.

The sheriff added: “I don’t see any need for supervision.”
