Janitor jailed for drug stash

A SCHOOL janitor who hid almost £70,000 of cocaine in his flat was jailed for four years.

Robert Glass, 39, claimed he had kept the Class 'A' drugs in his home for 24 hours as a "favour" for a friend.

But police acting on a tip-off raided his "safe house". They discovered a package of cocaine under flooring in the bathroom and more in a bedroom and in a trainer in the living room.

In all more than one and a quarter kilos were recovered, advocate depute Shanti Maguire told the court.

Glass appeared for sentence at the High Court in Livingston yesterday. He earlier admitted being concerned in the supply of cocaine in Dunbar, in East Lothian on April 16.
