An Encrochat dealer tried to order kilo amounts of drugs from Amsterdam and transfer millions of pounds in cash to Ecuador.
Michael Doyle was jailed earlier this week for his role in a cocaine, heroin and amphetamine conspiracy. He used the handle “Battle-Hawk” to communicate with other criminals and organise for supplies of drugs to be brought into Merseyside during the first half of 2020 - but was caught after a cross border effort to hack the messaging service.
Messages heard at Liverpool Crown Court earlier revealed that while much of the 44 year old’s criminality was focused on the UK, he appeared to have aspirations to spread his business further afield.
