London police officers investigating Kate Moss' cocaine scandal believe the troubled supermodel, who is dating Babyshambles singer Pete Doherty, was set up by a drug dealer.

Moss was publicly shamed after images from a video showing her purportedly snorting cocaine in a London recording studio were published in a British newspaper last month.

Following the scandal, a series of high profile fashion houses including Chanel, Burberry, H Stern and H&M dropped Moss from their advertising campaigns.

Police investigating the case believe a 25-year-old man from east London offered Moss the cocaine before filming her. The video was recently broadcast on British TV channel Sky News.

A senior Scotland Yard (London police headquarters) source tells London newspaper the Evening Standard: "Someone went in there with the specific intention of stitching her up and we are investigating where the cocaine came from and who had the hidden camera.

A source from the recording studio adds: "I watched him take the cocaine out of his pocket and start cutting it up and offering Kate a line. It was a big set-up. It is very, very terrible what he has done. He has tricked her into taking the line."
