A drug trafficking ring known as "Flakey" was brought crashing down by undercover police.
Ryan Dougherty, 43, and Neil Cook, 40, from Liverpool, were involved in a conspiracy to flood the streets of Wales with heroin. When police swooped on a pub they found half-a-kilo of the Class A drug worth around £49,000 wrapped in a tea towel which had just been delivered to contacts in Swansea.
Five members of the gang appeared before Swansea Crown Court this week, where a judge described the trade in heroin as "evil" and said it destroyed communities and brought misery to users, Wales Online reports.
