UK Crime Unit Jails 108, Seizes $93.6M in Drugs

A specialist British law enforcement team, the Merseyside Organized Crime Partnership, has jailed 108 individuals involved in organized crime for a total of 851 years and seized drugs valued at up to $93.6 million since 2021, according to the National Crime Agency (NCA). The operation also resulted in the seizure of 33 firearms and the recovery of $2.4 million in criminal cash, with an additional $68.1 million in criminal proceeds identified for potential confiscation. Among those convicted were members of a cocaine delivery network targeting around 9,000 contacts in Liverpool, a crime boss planning to smuggle a ton of cocaine, and an individual linked to the UK's largest single ketamine seizure.
