As well as cannabis with a total estimated street value in excess of £475,000, a four-figure sum of cash was found.

Strelkov and Golovan, both giving addresses in Hawick, made no plea during a private hearing at Edinburgh Sheriff Court and were fully committed for trial on a date yet to be fixed.

They were both remanded in custody until their next court appearance.
