澳大利亚北领地两名26岁男子Andrew Washington和Jossire Nditije因涉嫌拥有和供应商业数量的多种毒品在达尔文地方法院受审[1]。两人被控是跨州毒品贩运辛迪加的主要参与者，涉及超过150万美元的现金交易[1]。检控指控涉及甲基苯丙胺、氯胺酮、可卡因和大麻[1]。
根据提交法庭的证据，两被告曾在2024年12月的文本消息中声称"我已经做了三年的大规模供应，没有被逮捕过"[1]。警方查获了五台运入北领地的衣干机，其中藏有3公斤甲基苯丙胺、2公斤氯胺酮、394克可卡因和超过9公斤大麻[1]。调查中还发现被告使用了"Duke Dingbat"、"Hot Plate"和"Bush Jesus"等化名进行交易[1]。执法部门仍在处理2024-2025年期间的积压群聊消息，仅衣干机运输月份的相关信息就达90页[1]。
法官已拒绝了两人的保释申请[1]，他们将于下月返回法庭[1]。
Two 26-year-old men, Andrew Washington and Jossire Nditije, faced Darwin Magistrates Court in Australia's Northern Territory on charges of possessing and supplying commercial quantities of methamphetamine, ketamine, cocaine, and cannabis[1]. The pair are accused of being principal participants in a cross-state drug trafficking syndicate that processed over $1.5 million in cash transactions[1].
Court documents revealed the sophistication of the alleged operation through intercepted text messages from December 2024, including one stating "I've been doing this for three years with mass supply and no arrests"[1]. Members of the drug ring communicated using aliases including Duke Dingbat, Hot Plate, and Bush Jesus[1]. The scale of one operation became apparent when five washing machines were transported into the Northern Territory with concealed drug shipments containing 3 kilograms of methamphetamine, 2 kilograms of ketamine, 394 grams of cocaine, and over 9 kilograms of cannabis[1].
Police are still processing a substantial backlog of group chat messages sent between 2024 and 2025, with the month of the washing machine transport alone generating 90 pages of communications[1]. A magistrate rejected bail applications for both men, who are scheduled to return to court next month[1].
