'Joe Soap from Malaysia' jailed for carrying €560k in cannabis
Stage: Sentence
Plea: Guilty
Outcome: Passing sentence today, Judge Martin Nolan said that although drug transportation was a serious matter, Beng was probably at the lowest level. Mr Byrne said of Beng: "He took a chance for small money and he got caught." The court heard that Beng is happy to leave Ireland and not return once he has completed his sentence.
