A deadly team of hitmen were hired from Manchester to take down a rival drug dealer in a bitter turf-war - but instead murdered a peacemaker sent to diffuse tensions.
Leonard Ward, the head of an Organised Crime Group in Nottingham ordered the killing of a local drugs kingpin who was threatening his supply of super strength cannabis in the Meadows area of the city.
He enlisted the help of Manchester drugs lord, Benjamin Taylor, who handpicked three assassins from his own group of dealers, to hunt down the rival dealer.
