Hot on the heels of reports that Pete Doherty is still shooting up in prison, comes news that his so-called mates are flogging his possessions while he’s behind bars.

The junkie singer’s pals have reportedly been touring North London pubs off-loading his prized paintings and sundry other items to fans in return for cash.

A pal tells The Sun: “Pete’s mates, people he really trusts, have been flogging his stuff to get some cash, including some of the horrible paintings he did using his blood.

“The chap selling those, one of his closest friends, was begging for no one to tell him. Then the next day he was back with something else.”

The Babyshambles frontman will be calling Wormwood Scrubs home for the next 14 weeks after ignoring rehab orders.
