(NME) BABYSHAMBLES missed their main stage appearance at Norway's OYA festival this weekend after singer PETE DOHERTY was detained in OSLO airport for carrying drugs.

An Oslo police officer, Harold Holmsen said: "I can confirm two British citizens were stopped by the customs on Friday at around 4pm."

He added: "One of them had 1.7g of coke, the other had 1.5g of heroin. They both received 8,000 krone (�700) fines and were released several hours later. It will not go to court as they accepted their fines but it will be registered as a criminal offence in Norway."[see full story for more] - Click here for the Full Story
