A NEWCASTLE man accused of financing the importation of 52 kilograms of methamphetamine onboard a "black flight" from Papua New Guinea to Australia, claims he had no knowledge of the $15 million importation.
Michael David Bridge, 40, was arrested on April 1 last year, about 10 days after an Australian Federal Police led investigation allegedly smashed a transnational organised crime group and seized duffle bags full of ice hidden in the nose of a light aircraft that landed on an outback airstrip in Queensland.
