Pass The Dutchie

British DJ is given court date

DJ Grooverider will appear in the Dubai Court of First Instance on his first hearing on January 27 to face charges of possessing drugs and pornographic DVDs, 7DAYS learned yesterday.

“He will face a possession charge and although blood tests show he took drugs he took them outside the UAE and so this is not under our jurisdiction,” a source at Dubai Public Prosecution said. The 40-year-old drum and bass guru, whose real name is Raymond Bingham, was arrested at Dubai Airport on November 23, after flying in to play a gig at the city’s Lodge nightclub.
Sources said customs officials found pornographic DVDs and cannabis on him after he was searched. Grooverider, who is currently being held at Dubai Airport jail, is the host of the weekly drum and bass radio show ‘Fabio and Grooverider’ on BBC Radio 1.
