Grooverider: More details

Cat Le-Huy, 31, head of technology for Big Brother makers Endemol, finally returned home last Thursday after being thrown behind bars on a holiday in the UAE in January, also for cannabis possession. He had less than 0.03 grams - about the same weight as a grain of salt, apparently - in his suitcase. What’s also interesting is that he shared a cell with Grooverider.

He’s told his side of the story to the Hampstead and Highgate Express, and it doesn’t make for very happy reading. It sounds pretty grim in there. Again, my best wishes to Rider and all his friends and family.

Behind bars: Grooverider interview

UAI news site 7 Days has the first interview with UK drum and bass legend Grooverider since he was imprisoned for four years for smuggling cannabis into Dubai…well, the charge was for smuggling, but the DJ had about a spliff’s worth on him, apparently by accident.

As always, my thoughts go out to Rider and his family. Hold tight.
