Mick Whitnall of Babyshambles has been charged with drugs possession. It relates to an incident back on 12 Oct in which the guitarist, who joined the band two years ago as a replacement for Patrick Walden, was arrested at the Cafe Rouge restaurant in Blackheath on suspicion of possessing crack cocaine. Whilst he was questioned at a police station in south east London, officers searched his home and discovered what they believed to be rocks of the class A drug.
