James Davidson's conviction has put a stop - for now - to the criminal career of one of Scotland's most notorious drug smugglers.
The 58-year-old was jailed yesterday alongside David Mullarkey, Ellis Hardy and Wayne Smith for a total of 22 years after police seized a haul of high-purity cocaine worth up to £10million during a raid at a kitchen firm in Hillington industrial estate near Glasgow.
Davidson was a key member of the high-level drug gang headed by the country's most wanted men, James and Barry Gillespie.
