A Colombian cocaine gang living in London have been jailed for a total of 57 years at Southwark Crown Court, after being convicted of harbouring 108 kilos of cocaine worth £7.2 million.

Clive Davis, HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) Assistant Chief Investigation Officer said:

“This is the successful culmination of an investigation into the importation of cocaine into the UK from South America. HM Revenue & Customs is committed to reducing the availability of Class A drugs by detecting and deterring the smuggling of illegal drugs and other restricted and prohibited goods. We have succeeded in stopping over £7 million worth of drugs reaching our streets. The criminality surrounding class A drugs can devastate communities. We will reduce the harm caused by drugs, taking out cocaine and heroin targeted on the UK, and disrupting the criminal gangs who seek to profit from it.”
