Nathan Corfield, residing on Ulverley Green Road, was found carrying 32 kilograms of the class B drug concealed in suitcases as he landed back home. At Birmingham Magistrates' Court on June 23, Corfield pleaded guilty to importing the controlled substance. Given the gravity of the offense and the large amount involved, the case was immediately referred to Birmingham Crown Court for sentencing, where harsher penalties can be imposed.
