A man who was arrested for drug and weapons related charges following a Battlefords Municipal GIS Section search of a residence in North Battleford on March 22 has been granted bail. 

Liam Wuttunee, 22, who appeared in court again Tuesday, is facing charges that include possession of cocaine and cannabis for the purpose of trafficking. He was also charged with possession of the proceeds of crime, and possession of a rifle, shotgun, machete and bear spray for a purpose dangerous to the public.

Judge Lorna Dyck granted a bail release on strict conditions.

The accused must live with his father at Red Pheasant First Nation. He is not permitted to be in North Battleford except with permission of his probation officer to attend court, meet with his legal counsel, or for medical reasons. 

Wuttunee must also not possess alcohol, drugs or firearms. He also must have no contact with two co-accused individuals.
