Radio 1 DJ Grooverider has been sentenced to four years in prison in Dubai for cannabis possession.
The DJ was found in possession of 2.16 grams of the drug when he was stopped at Dubai airport in November last year.
Grooverider, real name Raymond Bingham, was most famous for his weekly drum and bass show on the station.
A spokesman for Radio 1 said that Bingham had “paid a very high price for a serious mistake."
He had claimed to have forgotten about the drugs when they were found in his pocket by airport security, reports the BBC.
- Ha ha ha ha! Another wanky Brit thinking a country like Dubai is a cool place to be. Fucing tourist!
- Yeah Yak! I bet you’ve never even set foot outta Bootle have ya lad!!!
- How was he a ”tourist”? He was there for work purposes - to DJ at a club.
As much as I dislike the guy and think he was a ****ing moron for doing this, The Yak’s comments are plain wrong - get your facts right first.
- and he spelt ’****ing’ wrong!
- Why has he been banged up? Ignorance and stupidity.
Am I ****ing wrong?
