Snow-runner’s confession ties Night case to forged labels
Matthews tells Superintendent Dixon how Captain Kettle used a printing plant in William Street to forge labels for Dr Night’s drug shipments. The operation fed the counterfeit dinkum product into Sydney and beyond, with caps kept in the dark by fear of retribution. the confession also links Zimmerman’s theft of gold pencils to the scheme. Matthews claims Tim Diyer warned him, and Night’s operations hinge on a hidden supply chain and labeled bottles for the illicit drugs trade.
