Six people who benefited from the lucrative drug dealings of an organised crime group (OCG) will repay just a fraction of the £20m profits.
The OCG was headed up by brothers Alan and John Tobin who supplied hundreds of kilos of narcotics to notorious gangs across the UK. While maintaining the veneer of respectability due to their public service work, the brothers lived a second life as EncroChat dealers "CapeRocket" and "SlightDrake".
For more than four years, between 2016 and 2020, the Tobins enlisted couriers utilising specially adapted vehicles with secret "hide" compartments to ferry drugs across the UK. Among their infamous customers were two Warrington firms - Anthony and Leon Cullen's heavily armed gang and a group headed by Jamie Oldroyd - plus a Liverpool outfit led by Lee Stoba.
