Two illegal arms dealers have been jailed for a total of 31 years after they used a 3D printer to create machine guns destined for criminal gangs. Sibusiso Moyo, 41 and Christopher Gill, 35, were convicted of manufacturing the firearms after police found the deadly plastic weapons in the back of a BMW.
Video revealed how officers swooped on the car that Majeed Rehman, 46, an associate of the pair, had been driving on May 17 last year in Bradford, West Yorkshire. And they discovered an ‘FGC9’ homemade automatic sub-machine gun, magazine and bullets hidden in a supermarket 'bag for life' in the rear footwell of the car.
Police performed the stop on the vehicle after surveillance showed a man, later identified as Gill, get into the BMW while carrying the shopping bag. And raids on Gill’s property, led by the Yorkshire and Humber Regional Organised Crime Unit, found two further almost complete FGC9s in a holdall hidden in his loft.
