Supermodel Kate Moss is likely to dodge criminal charges over her alleged cocaine-snorting session last year, as police have failed to find any witnesses willing to give evidence against her.

The troubled 32-year-old came under fire in September when a British newspaper published images purporting to show her taking the drug in London studio Metropolis, where her on/off boyfriend Pete Doherty was recording with his band Babyshambles.

The Crown Prosecution Service will decide within the next 10 days whether to charge her.

Moss was interviewed by the Police in January, but reportedly refused to answer questions regarding the allegations.

It is believed enough evidence has been gathered against Moss to convict her, but the Police are concerned the case will never come to court.

A police source tells London newspaper the Evening Standard, "It's a no-win situation. If she is prosecuted people will say, 'Why pick on her and not the thousands of other drug users in London?'

"If she isn't prosecuted it is seen as a waste of money and proof that celebrities can get away with anything."

The police are concerned Moss was 'set up' by a music industry insider. It is rumored The Daily Mirror newspaper paid up to $262,500 for the mobile phone footage which broke the scandal.
