[2009] EWCA Crim 1483

Following an offender's conviction for conspiracy to supply Class A drugs, it was an abuse of process to later try him for money laundering and deception offences that arose out of the drug offences, where the evidence sought to be relied upon in connection with the money laundering had been available at the earlier trial and was strikingly in conflict with the offender's basis of plea.
