El-Nakla, Stewart, and McGowan had earlier appeared at Dundee Sheriff Court on Monday for a separate matter - as they were accused of being concerned in the supply of heroin, and possessing cocaine and cannabis.
The trio were charged with the alleged drug offences following a report of a break-in in the city's Balmoral Gardens on 11 January.
All three made no plea during their appearance in the dock and were granted bail.
