Drugs baron who flooded UK with cocaine entered crime at 'Premier League level' and became one of the country's most wanted

A drugs baron who flooded the UK with cocaine was told he'd entered crime at 'Premier League level' as he finally faced justice. Michael Moogan, 37, spent eight years on the run and became one of the country's most wanted men before finally being caught in Dubai.

He was dragged back to Greater Manchester after being extradited, and appeared philosophical on his return. "You’re not going to have any trouble from me," he told the arresting officer after arriving back on home soil.

"I’m tired now. Get me up to Manny and get me in Cat A. I’m done now."
