Illegal stashes were kept secret inside plastic tubs in safes in Nottingham

Drugs which formed part of a massive drug supply network across Nottinghamshire were kept in plastic tubs inside a safes. It was just one example of just how careful the network would be to try and cover their tracks from law enforcement.

However, the gang's illicit activities were smashed wide open as police made arrests across the county and recovered drugs, before bringing the culprits to justice before the courts. As well as drugs kept in safes, police also discovered one individual used an astonishing 36 different telephone numbers during the conspiracy.

The end of the empire brought down three drugs lines supplying heroin, cocaine, crack cocaine and cannabis within Nottinghamshire. The criminal network was involved in the supply of controlled drugs through three distinct mobile phone lines, known as ‘drug lines’, - which were used to take orders and sell drugs. The conspiracy to supply illegal Class A and B drugs was active between January 2021 and March 2022.
