UK - Islamic Drug Gang Sentenced in Khan’s London, Media Silent

19 men of mostly Muslim background were sentenced in the past few days for charges including the supply and sale of heroin and crack cocaine. They received a total sentence of 49 years. The media reporting on the verdict has been quite slim to non-existent.

The gang used BT phone boxes from their own night shops so that callers would not be charged for the first few minutes of calls as they made arrangements for the drug deals.

Posing as drug users, metropolitan police were able to meet up with gang members in Whitechapel streets to pick up packages of crack cocaine and heroin.
