Seven men have been sentenced to more than 58 years in prison after being convicted of running a major cocaine operation across South Wales and the Midlands.
Brothers Ryan and Leon Morgan led the organised crime group from Swansea, orchestrating the distribution of multi-kilogramme quantities of cocaine worth £500,000 despite having no legitimate employment.
Police seized more than 8kg of high-purity cocaine (85%), along with 18kg of cutting agents, a hydraulic press, drug paraphernalia and a sawn-off shotgun with ammunition during the operation.
Detective Inspector Vinnie Easton of Tarian said: “We welcome the sentences given to these men for their roles in selling very significant amounts of Class A drugs in south Wales. This thorough investigation uncovered a major drug conspiracy and is a great example of the detailed work carried out to combat organised crime of this nature.”
The sentences handed down at Swansea Crown Court included:
- Ryan Morgan (32): 16 years
- Leon Morgan (27): 10 years
- Thomas Saunders (23): 7 years 10 months
- Jack Tomkins (24): 7 years 1 month
- Kenny Peters (44): 6 years 6 months
- Nicky Davies (35): 5 years 2 months
- Gino Shergill (32): 5 years 10 months
