A man and a woman from east Suffolk have appeared in Ipswich Crown Court charged with drug offences.

Victoria Fine, 41, of Factory Street, Lowestoft, and Nathan Toppal, 33, of Noels Walk, Beccles appeared before the court on Friday.

Fine is charged with possession with intent to supply cannabis, a controlled class B drug, and being concerned in the supply of cannabis.

She was also charged with possession with intent to supply a controlled class B drug as well as being concerned in supply of a class B drug.

Toppal is charged with possession with intent to supply cocaine, a controlled class A drug cannabis, and another class B drug.

Neither defendant entered pleas at the hearing, and it was adjourned until June 4.

The court heard Toppal has mental health issues and reports on these issues are still pending.

Fine is fit to plea but she does not understand the evidence against her, according to defence barrister Christopher Jenkins, so the Judge Richard Kelly agreed to adjourn the hearing.
