Four more men are to appear in court accused of joining five Mexicans in a 'Breaking Bad-style' Warwickshire meth plot

Kenneth Burton, Paul Harkness Mawby and Anthony Devine, all 34, are scheduled to appear before Teesside Magistrates' Court on Saturday, with Mohammed Khan, 36, set to face Birmingham magistrates. National Crime Agency officers carried out the arrests on Thursday following raids across Birmingham and the North East. The alleged drugs lab was located on farmland near Furnace End, in an isolated rural setting. The US Drug Enforcement Agency provided support for the investigation.

Five Mexican nationals deny the charge, insisting they worked on the farm as chefs and builders.

Four of the Mexicans come from Culiacan in Mexico's Sinaloa region.

The five Mexican men are due to stand trial at Warwick Crown Court on 15 February.
