OTTAWA 'CP) - Three
nadian Army non-commissioned
officers have becn sentenced to
a severe-reprimand and fines of
$100 each for smuggling opium
or gold in Indochina, Defence
Minister Harkness ii formed the
Commons Wednesday.
He di_ not sped y whether
the sentences were for opium
or gold smuggling or both. Under 'a,he Canadian Criminal
Code, the maximum sentence
for trafficking in narcotics is
life imprisonment.
Mr. Harkness identified the
three soldiers as Sgt. J. M.
Champagne, Sgt. W. B. Gaebel
and Cpl. A. J. Hill. The defence
department refused to give
thcir hometowns or any'particulars about them.
The minister   said   considera
tion is being given to "compulsory release" from.tie army of
the three men.
He said they were charged
under Section 118 of the National Defence Act which deals
with conduct to thc prejudice of
good order and discipline. Maximum sentence under this section is dismissal in disgrace
from the service.
COULD  HINDER  PROMOTION
The sentence of a severe reprimand means, in effect, that
any promotions for the thrce
soldiers would be held up—if.
they remain in the army.
Mr. Harkness said thc three
werc charged and convicted
summarily in late 19B1 and
early 1962 in Indochina where
they werc serving on thc international truce supervisory com-1
missions. i
