Apia, SAMOA — A Canadian man accused of possession of ‘ice’ appeared before Samoa Chief Justice Patu Tiava’asu’e Falefatu Sapolu on Monday (Samoa time).

William Ernest Rockliffe, 50, is accused of possession of narcotics and possession of utensils. 

He was represented by lawyer, Lefau Harry Schuster.

Chief Justice Patu adjourned the matter to 1 October 2018 as requested by prosecution Leone Su’a-Mailo so they can finalise the charges.

Mr. Rockliffe is released on bail and has been ordered to surrender all travel documents.

Earlier this month, Customs and police allegedly discovered the drug methamphetamine, better known as “ice” on a yacht, which is now docked at the Marina Bay.
