Drugs Charges
For Pete Doherty
Babyshambles
singer Pete
Doherty
has been charged with seven counts of
drugs possession, Scotland Yard has
said.
The
troubled rock star, from Bethnal Green,
east London, will appear at Thames
Magistrates Court on Thursday.
He faces
two charges of heroin possession, two of
having crack cocaine and three of cannabis
possession.
Mr
Doherty, 26, whose band's hits include
Albion, recently received a 12-month
community service order after pleading
guilty to drug possession.
The new
charges relate to incidents in December
and January, at two different addresses in
east London.
Doherty
became famous as the frontman of band The
Libertines, but after parting from the
band, created his latest group,
Babyshambles.
He is
probably better known to a wider audience
for his time as boyfriend of model
Kate
Moss,
a relationship which finished last
year.
