A drugs gang was shipping large quantities of cocaine and cannabis from Liverpool to Pembrokeshire via Dorset, a court has heard.
The crime group was taken down by a major investigation by Dyfed-Powys Police which included covert surveillance of a suspect's property in Fishguard. So far six of the gang have been jailed for their parts in the conspiracy but one major figure remains at large.
Jim Davis, prosecuting, told Swansea Crown Court that the operation was being run by Terrance Harrison, a Liverpudlian who was living in Dorset, and Pembrokeshire man Shaun Lucas. He said Harrison used his contacts on Merseyside to source cocaine and cannabis which were shipped to the west country then delivered to the Fishguard end of the conspiracy, Lucas, by drugs couriers. The barrister said Lucas would then distribute the drugs to local dealers and users and return the payments to Dorset. Lucas used his partner's house in Stop and Call, Goodwick, as a base for distributing the drugs.
