An organised crime charge has been laid against a Christchurch man who previously faced an allegation of money laundering as part of the alleged Colombian cocaine importing group arrested in November.
Rene Bell, 44, a licensee, entered no plea to the charge when he appeared on remand at the Christchurch District Court.
He was previously charged with laundering $200,500 with others in September last year and had been remanded on bail to today when a plea was expected.
