Three men have appeared in court following the seizure of around £203,000 of cocaine and cannabis at Lerwick ferry terminal in Shetland.
Police uncovered the drugs haul after receiving intelligence and searching a car at approximately 8am on Friday January 19.
Three men – aged 36, 28, and 24 – were arrested and charged in connection with the discovery.
They appeared in private at Lerwick Sheriff Court on Monday, each on two charges of being concerned in the supply of a controlled drug.
Sean White, 24, and 28-year-old Connor McNeil – both from the Clydebank area – made no plea.
Ross Bradley, 36, from Bishopbriggs, also made no plea, and the three accused were committed for further examination and released on bail.

Following Friday’s police operation, Detective Inspector Calum Reid said: “These drugs were set to enter the Shetland community.
“This recovery highlights our commitment to tackling Serious and Organised Crime and keeping the Shetland community safe from the harm caused by illegal drugs.
“Support from members of the public is vital as part of our work to bring those responsible for supplying illegal substances in our communities to justice.
“Anyone who has information or concerns about the sale and supply of drugs is urged to contact police Scotland via 101.
“Alternatively, if you’d prefer to remain anonymous, call Crimestoppers on 0800 555.”
The trio are due to reappear in court on a date still to be confirmed.
