Definitely Maybe, Probably Not: Fae Glesga Tae Goa

By James Joseph Toner

Growing up on the rough streets of Castlemilk, James Toner found himself drawn to the worlds of drugs and crime. But from an early age, alcohol was the drug that had its claws firmly into the young Glaswegian. And it was alcohol that led to his frequent brushes with the law. Rising from petty crime to being a bag man for various dealers, James operated on the fringes of society, riding the Ecstasy wave of the late 1980s into cocaine addiction in the 1990s. But two events would change his life forever. The first was his brother's brutal murder in 2004 which shattered the newly found life of normality he had worked so hard for. The second took place when trying to escape the stress and aftermath of that murder. Leaving Glasgow and all its problems behind, he fled to his beloved Goa, a destination he had been visiting for many years. There, when carrying out what should have been an everyday pickup of hashish for him and some friends, he found himself set up by the local police and his supplier. What followed was eleven months on remand in the hell of Indian prisons, then a 3-year period of limbo as he found himself trapped in the maze of the corrupt and complicated Indian legal system.At times tragic, at others humorous, this is the true story of one man's journey through life and all the hurdles he faced. More importantly, it's a story of realisation and recovery, one that can inspire anyonewho has battled drink or drug addiction.
