They were seen on CCTV smoking something from a makeshift ‘bong’, a coke can.

When spoken to Graham admitted it may have been cannabis and that his co-accused had put it in the coke can.

The case had been adjourned from a previous court for a short sentence report from probation.

A barrister representing the defendant said he had a previous caution for a cannabis offence and was on a final warning from his employers.
