Man arrested in Port Hawkesbury bust scheduled to return to court

A suspect charged in relation to a drug bust in Port Hawkesbury is expected back in court Friday.

RCMP say officers searched a home in the town in August.

They say they seized dexamphetamine, marijuana, marijuana plants, hashish and other evidence.

James Kenneth MacLean, 53, faces three charges in the case- possession for the purpose of trafficking marijuana and cannabis resin and production of marijuana.

The Port Hawkesbury man, who entered not guilty pleas in January, is scheduled to have a trial date set in Nova Scotia Supreme Court in Port Hawkesbury.

MacLean was convicted of three break-and-enter-related charges and two breaches in 2013; he was sentenced to 12 months in custody and 15 months of probation.
