A 30-year-old man who was convicted of drug trafficking offences has been jailed for three years and nine months.
Jordan McKinlay helped to transport £450,000 worth of cocaine from England to Scotland and was arrested on Saturday 18 April, 2020.
He was sentenced at the High Court in Glasgow on Wednesday 9 November, 2022 having earlier pleaded guilty to being concerned in the supply of drugs.
