ACONVICTED drug dealer has been ordered to pay back more than £200,000, including by giving up a £90,000 vintage Ford car.

- BY JAMES HOLT

Lee Whiteley, 35, previously admitted conspiracy to supply class B drugs and the cultivation of cannabis in November 2023.

Whiteley, of Alkrington Road North in Middleton, was handed a suspended sentence.

But following a confiscation order at Minshull Street Crown Court, he must now repay £218,443 believed to have been derived from his crimes.

During the Proceeds of Crime investigation, a number of items were seized including a vintage Ford Cosworth valued at £90,000, a Transit van worth £50,000 and a £3,000 electric bike, Greater Manchester Police said.
