PROBATION FOR DRUG TI~FT--Two young men who stole $8000 and drugs from a Port
Hedland chemist shop were placed on probation for three yeaxs when they ap-
peared in the District Court yesterda,y. Judge Acka,lnd also ordered Kevin A1-
bert Marr {21) and David Eric Tchan (21) to do 150 hours of unpaid work under
a community service order. Marr, fitter's trade assistant, and Tchan, ga,rden- -
er, both formerly of the single quaxters at Point Cook, Port Hedland, ha,d ad-
' mitted stealing more than $8000 and a quantity of drubs on February 22. Pre-
sentence reports showed tha,t Marr had been using marihuana and heroin and
_ Tchan had been using marihuana, heroin and baxbiturates. ~Excerpts] [Perth

DANGEROUS DRUGS STOLEN--A Mosman Park doctor has ha,d dangerous drugs and medi-
cal instruments ~tolen from his car for the second time in six weeks--and in
identical circumstances. A thief forced the front passenger-side window of
the doctor's car while it was parked in a carport next to his house at 2.50am
yesterday. The drugs and instrwaents were in a bag in the car. Another bag, `
with similar contents, was stolen from the same place after the same cax win-
dow was forced last month. The doctor's name was not released. His wife
said yesterday tha,t her husband left the bag in the cax deliberately because
it was unsafe to leave it in the house and his surgery was often broken into.
The acting chief of the CIB, Supt Roy Gues~, said that the bag stolen yester-
day contained morphine and pethidine. He said tha,t there had not been a dra-
matic increase in drug thefts in recent months but there would always be some
people tryin to find drugs illegally in doctors' bags ar.d at surgeries. -

BAIL ON DRUG CHARGE--A man committed to stand trial for allegedly supplying
drugs worth about $5,000 w~,s granted $30,000 bail at the District Court, Parra-
matta, yesterday. A ba,il condition requires the man, Adam Fakoury, 32, unem-
ployed, of Bronte Road, Bronte, to surrender his passport. Detective R. C.
Clarke, of Blacktown, who opposed Fakoury's application for bail, told Judge
Loveday: "We believe he has two pa,ssports and he says they axe lost." De-
- tective Claxke said Fadioury was committed to stand trial for allegedly sup-
plying "five ounces of hashish oil worth about $5,000" at Mays Hill on
February 10. ~Excerpt] ~Sydney TfiE SYDNEY MORNING HERALD in English 2 May 80

DRUG DEALERS JAILED--A 26-yeax-old off-shore oil-rig engineer earning $20,000
a year, his younger brother and a friend engaged in drug-dealing purely for
profit, a Supreme Court judge said yesterday. Mr Justice Smith said tha,t there
was no excuse for wha,t the engineer, Neale Dodwell Browne, his brother, Don
Dodwell Browne (20), and a firned, Micha.el Murray Kenworthy (20~, had done.
He gaoled Neale Browne, drilling-fluids engineer, of McKenzie Street, Wembley,
for four years with a 20-month minimum for supplying a quantity of cocaine to -
another about December 15 last yeax. His brother, Don Browne, unemployed la-
bourer, of Minora Road, Dalkeith, anrl their friend~, KenwortY~y, wicket curatox,
of Doonan Road, Nedlands, were gaoled for three yeaxs each with a 14-month
minimum for selling cocaine between December 15 last year and January 4~ this
year. Don Browne was sentenced to a concurrent three-year term for possession
of 5.5 grams of cocaine on January ~ this ;~eax with intent to sell or supply it
to another. Mr Justice 5mith said Neale Browne had made an arrangement with
an American co-worker on the oil rig that he wou~d bring an ounce of cocaine r~
into Australia after a trip to America. Mr Justice Smith said there was no
doubt tha,t the cocaine had been widely disseminated in WA and the Ea.stern
States as a result of the activities of the three men. ~Excerpts] [Perth
