A man who went on the run after a raid on a Dutch cafe, suspected to be a front, has admitted his part in an international drug trafficking plot.
Michael Paul Moogan, 36, from Croxteth, went on the run in October 2013 after a raid on a cafe suspected of being a front for meetings between drug traffickers and cartels. The Café de Ketel in Rotterdam was not open to the public and could only be entered via a security system and was strictly for known faces.
The National Crime Agency (NCA) worked with the Dutch National Crime Squad and became aware of information that linked Moogan and two other British men to the venue, which was the hub for Moogan’s conspiracy to bring hundreds of kilos of cocaine into the UK every month.
