Geebung, 23, of Commercial Road, said he wanted help with his addiction when his sentencing was adjourned in Warrnambool Magistrates Court last month.

He pleaded guilty to trafficking ice and cannabis, possessing ecstasy, failing to answer bail and a range of driving offences including driving under the influence of drugs.

He was caught with almost $10,000 in cash and evidence of high-level dealing.

Magistrate Peter Mellas said at the plea hearing that Geebung had spent 42 days in custody and the residential program was an important opportunity in Geebung's life.

He warned Geebung to stick to his treatment or he would finish up in jail.

Geebung was released on bail with the conditions he attend the Bunjilwarra centre at Hastings for six months and not drive, drink alcohol or take drugs.

A court warrant has been issued for his arrest.

In other news, Warrnambool police are running an operation in October targeting outstanding court warrants.

Acting Sergeant Jason Barker said warrants could be a result of a person being summonsed or bailed to appear in court and not attending.

"Police are appealing for any person who believes they may have an outstanding warrant to attend at Warrnambool or their nearest police station," he said.

"The officer on duty will be able to confirm if there is a warrant in existence."

Acting Sergeant Barker said Warrnambool police had 82 outstanding warrants and officers were encouraging people to be proactive. 

"People may find the situation embarrassing and by coming forward to police, we hope this will eliminate their concerns," he said.

"Alternatively, there may be people who believe they have a warrant outstanding but are avoiding police.

"The message for those people is that police would rather give them the opportunity to come and have their matter dealt with rather than have members turn up at their place of employment or their home in the early hours of the morning to locate them.”
