Police found cannabis worth 5,000 pounds ($8,282) at his home in Hayes in west London in August last year.
He was convicted for illegal drug possession Feb 26 after a five-day trial.
Sookun had claimed before officers and a jury at Isleworth crown court that weighing scales found with cannabis at his home were for making fairy cakes.
