COURT HEARS CANNABIS IN MANS HOME 'FOR PAIN RELIEF'
A man told police that 745g of dried cannabis and 5.4kg of wet leaf found
in his home was for "painkilling", the Greymouth District Court was told.
Cyril James Delamere, 36, formerly of Kowhiterangi, south of Hokitika,
pleaded guilty to charges of cultivating cannabis, possessing cannabis and
producing cannabis oil.
Judge Christopher Somerville said Delamere would need to find a new method
of pain relief after he was sentenced in Christchurch next month as he was
fairly certain to go to prison.
