Saskatoon Hells Angel Robert Allen pleads guilty to drugs and weapon charges

Defence lawyer says weapon charge laid because of membership in motorcycle club

The lone Saskatoon Hells Angel charged in last year's Project Forseti busts pleaded guilty this morning to drugs and weapons charges.


Robert Allen, 36, was fined a total of $585 in provincial court.
Allen pleaded guilty to possessing 27 oxycontin and hydromorphone pills, and a set of brass knuckles. The items were seized when police raided his home in early January 2014.


It was part of a larger operation in which police said they seized more than $8 million worth of drugs and 200 guns.


Many of the men charged are alleged members of the Fallen Saints motorcycle club.
Outside court today, defence lawyer Morris Bodnar said Allen was charged with the weapons offense because he's a member of the Hells Angels.
