A French bulldog called Bob has helped collar a drug gang and foil their plot to smuggle more than 70 stone of MDMA to Australia.
They hid the Class A drug, also known as Ecstasy, with a street value of £45million in the arm of a mechanical digger.
But the traffickers were unaware the encrypted phone network they used had been hacked by the National Crime Agency, in part of the UK’s biggest-ever organised crime probe.
