Neither of the passports were in Xheng's name.
Xheng pleaded guilty to being concerned in the supply of cannabis.
He also admitted possession of counterfeit Chinese passports.
Bob McCormack, defending, told the court that his client had been handed the passports by others.
The lawyer added: "The quality of the passports were laughable and it is wholly improbable that they could be used and presented.
"When he was handed these passports, he should have reported them but he put them on top of a cupboard.
"My client was engaged in playing cards at this location."
A charge of Xheng providing gambling facilities without a licence had a not guilty plea accepted by the Crown.

'Trump's latest golden gimmick has finally been exposed - the grift goes on'
The crooked Trump Organisation's latest golden gimmick, the T1 smartphone - billed as a proudly American alternative to Apple's iPhone 17 - isn't quite as stars-and-stripes as advertised. Marketed under the new "Trump Mobile" brand, the gold-plated handset is due to ship in August and proudly claims to be 'Made in the USA.' But eagle-eyed social media sleuths have already called foul, uncovering that the T1 is actually a Chinese-made Android device in a MAGA makeover… and being flogged for three times its price on Amazon. The Trump Mobile network itself has been dubbed an "All-American service," though critics suggest the only thing truly domestic about it is the markup. The Trump grift goes on. A wannabe photographer learned the hard way that breaking into a prison can land you right where you'd expect - behind bars. Cody Mallon, 19, from Argyle, New York, fancied himself a bit of an urban explorer when he crawled through a hole in the fence of the shuttered Downstate Correctional Facility in Fishkill just after midnight. Once inside, the teen reportedly got a little too into character and managed to lock himself in one of the old cells. Realising freedom wasn't part of the self-guided tour, he had to call for help. State Police and the Glenham Fire Department responded and freed the red-faced inmate-turned-intruder. Mallon was promptly arrested for criminal trespass. Ed the Zebra, who hoofed it out of captivity and trotted into internet stardom, was finally grounded after more than a week on the loose in Tennessee. The stripy fugitive was spotted chilling in a pasture near a local subdivision before being dramatically airlifted by helicopter back to an animal trailer. No frequent flyer miles were earned. A DoorDash driver accidentally turned Chicago O'Hare into his own personal delivery route after driving miles through the airport's restricted roads on Saturday. Airport police say the confused courier wandered along taxiways and secure areas before being spotted by someone in the control tower. Authorities confirmed it was all a mistake, but admitted the driver may have crossed actual runways. No word on whether the food was on time. Things got a little too fraught at a Charlotte commission meeting when protesters released live crickets during a debate on gun violence awareness. The unexpected insect invasion forced a recess while crews rounded up the chirping culprits. 'Disturb the meeting, and you'll be escorted out - or charged,' warned Chair Mark Jerrell.

Family's fury as women pose for 'photoshoot' in front of murder victim's home
The family of hit-and-run murder victim Brandon Lee Porter-Kershaw have been left distressed and 'disgusted' after two women staged a 'photoshoot' in their front garden The family of a teenager who was tragically killed in a hit-and-run incident have expressed their shock and outrage after two women conducted an odd 'photoshoot' in the front garden of his home. A murder probe is ongoing following the death of 19 year old Brandon Lee Porter-Kershaw in Bury in May. Flowers left at the scene and at his former school in tribute to Brandon were relocated to the front garden of his Bury home. The family has now disclosed that on Tuesday, two women posed for photos and videos in the garden, as captured by a Ring video doorbell. Uncensored footage has been shared on Facebook by the family, who say they are distressed, appalled and bewildered by the incident. In strange scenes, one of the young women flicks her hair and poses for photos and a video, even lifting her dress at one point. The other woman stands at the entrance to the garden with a mobile phone. Brandon lost his life when a red Audi car 'accelerated' and then 'turned into him' while he was standing on a street with two friends, according to what was revealed at the opening of his inquest. The two friends managed to dodge the car, but the father-of-one was hit on Porritt Street and was later pronounced dead, reports the Manchester Evening News. Police have confirmed that a man wanted for questioning in relation to his death - identified as 23 year old Tino Williams - remains at large, with a manhunt underway. The family expressed their utter confusion over the actions of two women who took part in the photoshoot at the home of a recently murdered young man, pleading with them to erase the footage they captured on their phones during the photoshoot. A family spokesperson conveyed their shock to the Manchester Evening News: "How dare they? It is just ridiculous. She even floats her dress in the video and puts down her jacket on the table in the front garden. These two very inconsiderate women took it upon themselves to trespass onto the front garden and have a little photoshoot at the house of a young lad who has just been murdered. "We cannot understand why these people would do such a thing. We are all just flabbergasted. We do not know why this has happened. It is disgusting and it is bizarre. We want to find out who these people are so we can ask them why?" Speaking to the M. E.N. , the family's representative said: "Because we do not know who these two are, we do not know what they have done with the videos and pictures they took. This has caused a lot of distress and we would ask them to delete all the images and pictures they took at once. "This situation is not a bit of entertainment for other people. This is real life and we are trying to grieve in peace without mindless people taking advantage" Brandon's family has disclosed that they haven't yet informed the Greater Manchester Police about a particular situation but are mulling over filing a formal report. Following Brandon's sudden passing, his family gave an emotional statement saying: "We are all truly shocked and heartbroken by the sudden loss of Brandon. "He was a gentle, kind-hearted young man whose warmth and social nature touched everyone around him. Brandon was taken far too soon, and his passing has left a deep void in all our lives. "They also paid homage to his role as a parent, stating: "Brandon was a devoted dad to his young daughter, who he loved deeply. His family meant everything to him, and the bond he shared with his mum was incredibly special, they were best friends. "Amid their sorrowful period, the family entreated for privacy: "As we come to terms with this devastating news, we kindly ask for privacy as we grieve and support one another through this difficult time. ". In connection to Brandon's death, a 38 year old man was arrested on suspicion of murder and subsequently released on bail pending further police investigations. Information on Williams' whereabouts can also be passed on to GMP by calling 0161 856 0110 or sharing it on the online public portal here. Anyone who sees him should dial 999 immediately.
