Liverpool gangster Curtis Warren has claimed his Jersey drugs trial was unfair because the defence team was not allowed to call three of its witnesses.
"Warren, 46, and five others were found guilty in October of plotting to bring £1m of cannabis into the island.
He was sentenced to 13 years in prison; the rest of the gang got between five-year and 12-year jail terms.
Defence lawyers for all six men are appealing against the convictions and length of their sentences.
Earlier they told the appeal court they had not been allowed to use three "crucial" witnesses during the trial.
They also complained about the late disclosure of some Crown material used in the trial".

Good luck to Curtis Warren and the other guys on their appeal for a reduction in their sentences .. the drug laws are an ass and so are the governments who make them.
You obviously do not know who Curtin Warren was and what he has been doing for a living and to the Liverpool community for decades
The guy has done nothing wrong.. He supplied a product which the public demanded and made some bucks out of it.. You want to talk about real criminals, look at your own government, who have killed 100000 Iraqi civlian's, and the people who run it
