PETALING JAYA: Two Nigerian students were charged at the magistrate's court here with possession of 714gm of cannabis.

Abu Bakar Gidato Umar, 23, and Eze John, 20, allegedly had 94 clear plastic packets containing the cannabis with them in a car at Persiaran Surian Damansara at 9.15pm on Dec 5 last year. No plea was recorded.

The offence under Section 39(B) of the Dangerous Drugs Act carries the mandatory death sentence upon conviction.

Abu Bakar's lawyer Shahul Hameed Abdul Wahab requested for copies of the chemist's report and charge sheet but DPP Siti Ruvinna Mohd Rawi said the report was not ready.

Magistrate Ahmad Solihin Abd Wahid set March 8 for mention of the case.
