Cocaine deal broker and debt collector splashed out on Rolex for his birthday

A drug deal broker and gang debt collector was paid a wage of up to £5,000 a month and splashed out on a Rolex watch on his birthday.

Gerrard Myler was identified as being the EncroChat user behind the handle DiorFox after sending pictures of his wife and children to co-conspirators.

Liverpool Crown Court heard today, Monday, that messages on the encrypted communications platform evidenced the 32-year-old involvement in the supply of at least 4kg of cocaine and 3kg of cannabis. These referenced a monthly salary of between £4,000 and £5,000 from fellow user DealPup, a stash house, a vehicle which had a hide to conceal drugs when transported and purchasing property to launder money.
