At about 1:20 p.m. yesterday, the Estevan Police Service arrested Bryan Francis Moyles, a 30-year-old Estevan man, after executing a search warrant at a residence on Peterson Drive.
Police seized a quantity of Gamma-Butyrolactone, which is an ingredient used in producing GHB, a substance commonly used in drug-facilitated sexual assaults.
Moyles has been charged with importation of a controlled substance, unlawfully producing a schedule I substance and possession of cannabis marihuana. All charges fall under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act.
Police seized about 2,000 doses of the substance with an estimated street value between $10,000 and $20,000.
Moyles is scheduled to appear in Estevan provincial court on Sept. 8.
