A TRIO of men from West Swindon face a stay in prison after admitting conspiring to sell hard drugs in the town.

Channon Barclay, Roilan Dunster and Michael Turner faced a number of charges at Swindon Crown Court, including conspiring to sell cocaine and heroin, and possession of cannabis with intent to supply.

Ahead of their appearance in court today, Hannah Squire, for the prosecution, withdrew one of the charges from the indictment to lie on file indefinitely.

Barclay, 21, of Tintagel Close, Dunster, 24, of Mildmay Close, and Turner, 20, of Wilmot Close, all pleaded guilty to the single count of conspiring to supply Class A drugs after the accusation relating to the sale of cannabis was lodged on file.

The charges relate to a period toward the end of last year and into January 2014.

The police investigation brought against them said that between 15 October 2013 and 15 January 2014, the three men conspired together to supply Class A drugs.

All three have now been released on conditional bail while pre-sentence reports are prepared.
