Using names such as 'TupacDon' and 'Simonsays, the gang supplied huge quantities of heroin and cocaine across the country.

Mohammed Omayr, 41, from Chorlton; Abdul Bahadir, 41, from Oldham; and Husnain Ali, 36, from Bolton, have been handed lengthy jail sentences following an investigation which also uncovered 'dirty' cash, designer clothes and watches.

Omayr was responsible for the sale, distribution, returns, testing, storage and payments for a huge amount of class A drugs, according to Greater Manchester Police.

He directed his courier, Bahadir, to move massive amounts of money and to deliver the drugs to customers across the country on a daily basis, hiding cocaine and heroin in a hidden compartment of his car.
