Pete Doherty Caught Doing Heroin on Flight

British singer Pete Doherty was fined by Swiss police for doing heroin during a flight from London on Friday, according to an Associated Press report.

The 30-year-old rocker was picked up by officers after the 1 hour, 40-minute British Airways flight landed in Geneva, and held for two hours, according to the AP.  Doherty then paid an unspecified fine and was released.

Swiss police confirmed this account, but refused to address a report in a Swiss newspaper which said that Doherty was discovered by a stewardess collapsed in a toilet, with a used syringe nearby.

Doherty, lead singer of Babyshambles and former boyfriend of British model Kate Moss, has been known of late for his battles with drug abuse.  He landed in a London prison for 29 days last year after being caught with crack cocaine, heroin, ketamine and cannabis during a probation period.
