150 kilos of cocaine found on ship in Halifax - Update II

Matthew Ross Lambert and his wife, Nyet Cheng Siow, were to be arraigned on an allegation of concealing or converting $25,000 in Canadian currency that was the proceeds of crime. That charge has been dropped. Lambert is still facing two other sets of charges, including conspiracy to commit robbery and counselling someone to commit robbery.

Nelson Ricardo Alvarado-Calles, 30, of Vaughan, Ont., was picked up by police in August. Their trafficking trial is expected next May.
