Colin Davies' brother Mark arrested during raid on cannabiscafe in Stockport

Pressmessage.

Stockport, October 3, 2002.

The GMP are out for the Davies clan, if that was not already clear after

Colin Davies Sr. had been arrested for perjury, some time ago, he gave a
false statement to protect his son. Davies Sr. was arrested and held at
the Stockport Police Station for 8 hours, charged with perjury, and
released on bail.

Earlier today, Colin Davies Jr., who bluntly opened the first ever
cannabiscafe in the UK, on September 15, 2001, was sentenced to a total
of 3 years imprisonment, for 6 charges he had been found guilty of
yesterday, and for charges of possession with intent to supply, and
perjury, both a result of Colins last arrest, in his flat, for breaking
his bail-conditions. Colin pleaded guilty on both charges today, to
avoid his father from being prosecuted for perjury, and to ensure a
review of the case of Dutchman Bart Meekel, who was arrested during
Colins last arrest, and is still in remand for that, since July 11!

Colins supporters, the so-called DE-fenders, were gutted about the
outcome of the trial, but were in and around the Dutch Experience
cannabiscafe, as usual, after the trial.

The GMP raided the place around 16.00 hrs, the visitors were removed,
nobody was arrested in possession of cannabis, they learn fast, but
Dibbz and Coops, two veteran DE-fenders, were arrested for insulting the
police officers. Not so smart, there were about 40 of them present, for
a raid on a place that never caused any trouble to the community.
The police searched the place, as usual, and left after they were done,
as usual. One of the DE-fenders managed to find a way back in, and the
place came alive again, as usual. This time, the GMP came back, someone
from the opposite gym, Outline, called the police in.

The DE-fenders were chased out again, except for one, the police
surrounded the last person on the premises, Mark Davies, Colin Jr's
brother. He had no chance, he was just answering the call of nature, he
was caught with his pants down, producing a smelly substance. He was
arrested as a suspect of s(h)itting in a cannabiscafe, the smell gave
him away!

I hope the GMP do not spot Colins kids, skating on the road somewhere,
they might be next in line for an arrest!..

Mark Davies has not been released yet, the Davies family is in double
jeopardy again !
