Dundee beautician’s drugs hoard could have been worth £62,000 on streets

A Dundee beautician-turned-drug dealer was caught with nearly 900 grams of high-purity amphetamine.

The sheriff court heard Cally Henderson, who works at a city centre beauty salon, was also found with enough bulking agent to make the drug up to 6,294 grams of street-strength powder with a value of £62,940.

The court heard police had been watching Henderson, 33, of Sandeman Street, for weeks before they searched her home.

Depute fiscal Vicky Bell said: “Officers rang the doorbell and were let in to the house by the accused.

“They were led into the kitchen where she voluntarily said, ‘that’s it there’ and pointed to a carrier bag.

“The bag was seized and within it was a plastic and duct tape wrap containing 888.1 grams of amphetamine, which was found to be of 14% purity when tested.”

Henderson admitted that, between January 3 and 16, she was concerned in the supply of amphetamine.

She was given bail but warned by Sheriff Elizabeth Munro she could face jail.

Henderson’s sentence was deferred to October 27.
