A CONVICTED Greenock east end drugs pusher who is facing fresh narcotics charges is set to stand trial at the sheriff court this spring.

Jamie Douglas, 22, is now accused of having possession of cocaine, amphetamine and cannabis at his former home on Bawhirley Road last April.

He is further charged with acting in a threatening and aggressive manner and repeatedly shouting and swearing.

Douglas was spared jail in 2021 despite being caught with thousands of pounds worth of ecstasy during a police raid at his home.

He has pleaded not guilty to the new allegations against him.

The case is due to call again on April 18, ahead of a trial scheduled for May 15.
