BEIJING, May 15 -- Amy Winehouse will not face
any further police action over a video of her smoking what appeared to be crack
cocaine.
The troubled singer -- who has a well-documented drug
problem -- was questioned last Wednesday (07.05.08) at an East London police
station but officers have decided there is nothing more to follow up.
Amy's spokesman said: "Police have confirmed that no
action will be taken against Amy Winehouse in relation to an investigation into
a video handed to them in January. "She was questioned by police last week and
released on unconditional bail. They have now concluded their enquiries and no
charges will be brought.
Amy's bail date to return to Limehouse police station
has been cancelled, bringing this matter to an end.
"Amy is pleased to be able to move on and concentrate
on music and particularly looks forward to seeing her fans again at eagerly
awaited festival performances this summer"
Amy was arrested on Wednesday following an
appointment at Limehouse police station over drugs offences. The video in
question was recorded in January.
In the footage, reportedly taken at the star's former
East London home, the 'Rehab' star also appeared to snort "highly concentrated"
powdered ecstasy and cocaine and swallow six Valium pills. Amy's husband Blake
Fielder-Civil is currently on remand awaiting trial on charges of grievous
bodily harm (GBH) and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice.
