Client arrested for Cocaine supply, faces no jail time.

On a Saturday evening, our client was driving in an area that is well known for the use and supply of prohibited drugs. Police within that area observed another man enter into our client’s vehicle and then leave after a very short period of time. This raised their suspicions of a drug transaction and they proceeded to approach our client and his passenger. During the search of the passenger police found 2 bags of Cocaine with a total weight of 1.69 grams in possession.  He alleged that the cocaine was obtained from our client’s vehicle. Police proceeded to search the vehicle and found a large sum of money and more cocaine, weighing up to 15 grams.

Our client was arrested and taken to Sydney City PAC. He was charged with two counts of Supply a prohibited Drug under section 25(1) of the Drug Misuse and Trafficking Act 1985. He was also charged with deal with property proceeds of crime value of the property less than $100000 under s193C (2) of the Crimes Act 1900. Due to serious nature of the offences, our client was faced with the prospect of a significant term of imprisonment.

Desperately wanting to avoid jail, he wisely retained Principal Solicitor and Accredited Criminal Law Specialist Mr Zemarai Khatiz and had the Oxford Lawyers team on the case. Mr Khatiz presented strong submissions to the Court and brought to light a number of relevant factors. The Court was persuaded by the submissions which led to our client being able to walk away with only a good behaviour bond.

Our client was very pleased with the result as it meant that he was able to avoid jail time and community service. He would be able to return to his everyday life and continue to provide for the most important people in his life, his wife and 3 children.
