The multi-million pound drugs gang who splashed their cash on designer clothes and Rolex watches
Five men have now been jailed for their part in the multi-million pound operation which sold huge amounts of cocaine, MDMA, cannabis and ketamine over a four-year period.
Prosecutor Neil Fryman told the court that another alleged co-conspirator, namely Zuhir Nassrat, is still on the run. His older brother, Mohammed, claimed the money was his. He was arrested and claimed he had borrowed the money from a friend to buy a car. About a month later, police were involved in a high speed chase with a stolen black Audi, which reached speeds of 90mph in a 30mph zone.
The total value of the drugs seized was more than £43,000. There was also blood staining belonging to Ebrahim. Police carried out a number of ‘strike’ days, which saw several homes raided in connection with the investigation. Richard Canning, representing Azouz, said his client was not part of the larger conspiracy and that it was a ‘classic case of street dealing’. He added that he has a young family.
Mohammed Sadigh and Ebrahim Sadigh, both of Quantock Street, Moss Side, were jailed for 11 and seven years respectively after pleading guilty to conspiracy to supply cocaine, MDMA, cannabis and ketamine. Sentencing the five men, Recorder Mark Ford KC described the operation as "sophisticated and wide-ranging".
