 Two men charged after an undercover raid at a Wellington cannabis club have elected to go to trial.
Dakta Green and John Middeldorp pleaded not guilty before Wellington District Court judge Arthur Tompkins on Monday. Both men are charged with possessing cannabis for supply, supplying cannabis baked goods and supplying to an undercover police officer at the Daktory. Their lawyer Michael Bott said it was expected that Middeldorp's wife was to be charged too, and she would also be going to trial. Both men were remanded on bail to November for their case to be reviewed. Green, who opened "The Daktory" in Mt Victoria in April, had said the club was a "safe haven" that boasts 700 cannabis consumers. He said it was high time for a cannabis club in the capital. - stuff.co.nz |
