A SEVEN HILLS man was arraigned in Magistrate's Court yesterday in connection with a $80,000 cocaine seizure in Nassau Harbour.
Antonio Baillou, 32, was remanded to Her Majesty's Prison after being arraigned before Deputy Chief Magistrate Carolita Bethell in Court 8, Nassau Street, on the charge of drug possession with intent to supply.
It is alleged that on Sunday, February 19, while at the Bayshore Marina on East Bay Street, he was in possession of 10 pounds of cocaine, valued at $80,000.
Baillou denied the allegation and pleaded not guilty.
Deputy Chief Magistrate Bethell told the accused he was not eligible for bail due to the nature of the charge.
He will return to Magistrates Court on September 10 for trial.
