Two Men Facing Court Over Alleged Supply Of ICE In The Hunter

 BY IAN CROUCH

Two men with alleged links to an Outlaw Motorcycle gang have been charged with drug offences in the Hunter.

A 52-year-old man was arrested by Highway Patrol officers in Newcastle in January on an unrelated offence and remains in custody.

He's now been charged with six offences relating to the alleged possession and supply of the drug ICE and has been refused bail to face court in April.

A 36-year-old man was arrested during a vehicle stop at Cessnock last Tuesday.

He's due to face Cessnock Court on February 23 charged with supplying an indictable quantity of drugs.

It's alleged both men, who are linked to the Life and Death bikie gang, supplied ICE between November 2022 and January this year.
