Two men were arrested in connection with the suspected importation of cannabis resin linked to the owner of Chanel the parrot.
Sandra Hannah became a social media hit in 2020 after she recorded herself crying and repeatedly calling for her African Grey parrot Chanel. But in April this year, the ECHO revealed the 43-year-old, of Cumberland Gate, Netherton, was charged along with Ian Hannah, 55, with the importation of cannabis and possession of criminal property.
The charges came after a joint operation between Merseyside Police and the National Crime Agency. During a two-day operation officers found 237.6kg of cannabis resin imported from Spain.
