(BBC) A drugs conspiracy involving friends of the Manchester Arena suicide bomber was “comfortably” worth £6m, a court has heard.
Five men have been sentenced to between six and 12 years at Manchester Crown Court following a spin-off inquiry from the Manchester bombing investigation.
The men, from south Manchester, all pleaded guilty to conspiracy to supply drugs between 2017 and 2020.
A judge said it was a “sophisticated and wide-ranging operation.”
Judge Mark Ford KC said the turnover was “comfortably” worth £6m, and even possibly up to £10m.
