Pete Doherty pleads guilty to drugs charges

Babyshambles star admits his offences

Pete Doherty has pleaded guilty to seven drugs charges at Thames Magistrates’ Court.

The former Libertine was arrested yesterday after answering his bail at Stoke Newington police station and held in custody ahead of his court appearance.

The charges related to three arrests - on April 20 and 29 and on August 7 - and concern three counts of cocaine possession, two for heroin possession and two for cannabis.

As previously reported, Babyshambles missed a recent appearance at Ibiza Rocks after Doherty had trouble with his passport.
