The case of a man accused of attempting to bribe the Police to drop a drugs case will head to Supreme Court on June 1.

Kenneth Thompson, 50, of Sandys, is charged with attempting to pervert the course of justice by corruptly procuring a member of the Bermuda Police Service to dispose of an active Police investigation in which he was arrested under the Misuse of Drugs Act.

Between the same dates, from March 2 to August 27, 2009, he is also charged with allegedly corruptly offering to give a member of the Bermuda Police Service money.

Thompson has not been required to enter a plea, and yesterday Magistrate Juan Wolfe sent the matter to Supreme Court where he is due to enter a plea on June 1. Bail was set at $10,000.
