A prominent New Zealand television personality is facing serious drug-related charges, including involvement in an organised criminal group.
The former reality show contestant, who has appeared on screens for years in various roles, appeared in court this week to face allegations of possessing cocaine for supply, participating in an organised crime group, and conspiring to deal Class A drugs.
The person’s identity remains suppressed under an interim order.
The man has been granted bail and is expected to return to court next month.
