The drummer of hard rock group AC/DC, Phil Rudd, has had a charge of attempted to arrange a murder dropped in New Zealand.

Mr. Rudd’s lawyer said the charge was dropped because of lack of evidence.

Australian Mr. Rudd will still face charges—announced on Thursday—of possessing drugs and of making threats to kill. […]

Mr. Rudd’s lawyer, Paul Mabey, said the “charge alleging an attempt to procure murder should never have been laid”.
