Pete Doherty promises to stay off drugs

25 October 2007 - Pete Doherty has vowed to stay clean after a magistrate revoked his drug treatment order.

The Babyshambles frontman made the pledge outside London's Thames Magistrates' Court just moments after District Judge Jane McIvor decided to release him from the six months left on his two-year supervision order.

Pete said: "I'm quite proud but this is just the beginning.

"I have just had enough already. My life has changed. I'm still a bit wobbly but I'm taking one day at a time."

Speaking at a review hearing held to monitor Pete's progress in drug rehabilitation, Judge McIvor said: "I am going to revoke the last six months of the order.

"There is no need for any statutory supervision or state funding because the plan that's already in place, the experts have convinced me, is going to be followed. I wish you well."

Pete was arrested in December while carrying heroin, crack cocaine, cannabis resin and cannabis. He was arrested again in January while in possession of heroin, crack cocaine and cannabis.

The 28-year-old star has spent two days a week in voluntary drug rehabilitation and has been attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings.

Pete is due in court later this week to be sentenced for driving illegally while in possession of drugs in Kensington, London, in May.
