Members of an organised crime group were found in possession of cocaine and cannabis and were conspiring to deal further amounts of cocaine with a combined street value of £7.4m. The defendants were given a combined prison sentenced of 26 years.
Juniad Khan, 32, and Calum Mason, 24, of Cardiff, were caught in raids by officers from the Tarian regional organised crime unit on August 16 last year. A total of 27kg of cocaine with a street value of £2.7m and 2.7kg of cannabis worth £27,560 was seized from Mason's address.
The phones of the defendants were seized and on Khan's phone were messages sent and received using an encrypted app. This revealed a conspiracy to supply cocaine between May and August 2022, involving 47kg of cocaine with a street value of £4.7m.
