MAGISTRATES have banned a man from holding a licence for 12 months after he was caught drug driving.

Amin Mohammed, aged 22, of Little Holme Walk, Bolton, initially denied driving a Nissan Micra on Lostock Lane, Bolton, on December 19 last year after using cannabis, but then changed his plea to guilty.

In addition to the driving ban, Mohammed was fined £162 and ordered to pay £230 in costs and charges by Bolton magistrates.
