TWO men have been released on bail after admitting being involved in the trade in hard drugs in Swindon.

Nuno Luis, 45, pleaded guilty to conspiracy to supply heroin and crack cocaine between January 1 and May 14 last year.

And Dennis McNamee, 49, admitted two counts of permitting his premises to be used for the supply of class A drugs during the same period.

Luis, of Wilton Walk, McNamee, of Moredon Park, had both pleaded not guilty to the conspiracy charges at an earlier hearing at Swindon Crown Court.

Recorder Ian Lawrie QC adjourned their cases until after the trial of two men from London who denied the charges.

Christopher Render, 23, and David Bennett, 24, had their case adjourned to Thursday, September 10, at Bristol Crown Court.

A warrant has been issued for the arrest of a fifth defendant, Wayne Blench, 26, of Acton, West London, after he failed to attend a hearing in February.
