Prosecutors at The Crown Office in Scotland have dropped a cocaine charge against Erick Morillo.

The 37-year-old DJ and Subliminal Records supremo was arrested by custom officials at Glasgow Airport on December 20th, 2008 and was charged on suspicion of cocaine possession.

Two days later Morillo appeared in court where he pleaded not guilty before being released on bail.

Today, a spokesperson for the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service in Glasgow confirmed no further action would be taken.

The statement to the BBC read: "The procurator fiscal at Paisley received a report concerning a 37-year-old man in relation to an incident on 20 December 2008 As a result, proceedings were raised at Paisley Sheriff Court.

"However after full and careful consideration of all the facts and circumstances the procurator fiscal decided that the proceedings should be discontinued."
