A Manchester man who used the encrypted phone network EncroChat to import cocaine worth £1.6m has today pleaded guilty.
Ibraheem Abdullah, 38, was arrested by National Crime Agency officers on 17 April 2020 when the 20 kilos of high purity cocaine – hidden in boxes of mobile phone accessories – was seized at a joiners yard in the Middleton area.
Abdullah (also known as Dwaine George) attempted to escape when he saw NCA and Greater Manchester Police officers, who had just entered the yard in Wade Street.
He tried to destroy two mobile phones during the subsequent chase on foot – by throwing one against a wall and dropping another into the nearby Wince Brook – but was arrested minutes later.
Electronic scales and a quantity of small plastic bags were recovered during a subsequent search of his home address in Mariman Drive, Manchester.
The NCA investigation found that the device Abdullah had thrown against the wall was crucial, as it was the EncroChat phone he used to arrange the shipment under his Encro handle ‘Tenderpasta’
The drugs had been posted from the Netherlands and tests showed that they had a purity of between 70 and 73 per cent. They would have had an estimated street value of £1.6 million once cut. On 7 April 2020, ‘Tenderpasta’ exchanged messages with the EncroChat handle ‘Maxbro’, and identified the joiner’s yard as the best drop off location. He also sent a photo of the location.
Analysis of billing for numbers used by Abdullah show that around the time of these messages, his phones were using cell masts near the joiners yard.
Other Encrochat messages with a contact using the handle ‘Flyinghourse’ showed that Abdullah was trying to arrange an onward buyer for the cocaine, with the two individuals agreeing a sale price of £37,500 per kilo.
Abdullah appeared at Manchester City Crown Court on Tuesday, 9 November where he admitted a charge of conspiracy to import Class A drugs. He is due to be sentenced at the same court on 17 December.
NCA Operations Manager Helen Murphy said: “Like many other users of EncroChat, Abdullah will have mistakenly thought that he could traffic drugs with impunity.
“The NCA works with partners across the UK to ensure there are no safe spaces for serious and organised criminals, including those who seek to profit from a class A drugs trade which fuels violence and exploitation in our communities.”

L’homme circulait sur l’autoroute à bord d’un camion qui a attiré l’attention d’une patrouille de la route sud de Vérone, car il était cabossé et certaines lumières étaient grillées. Lors du contrôle, il est apparu que le véhicule contenait du matériel de plomberie (y compris des toilettes, des lavabos et d’autres articles de toilette), mais le conducteur n’a pu produire aucun document de transport.
La nervosité croissante de l’homme a conduit à une inspection plus minutieuse qui a permis de découvrir, cachés comme des carreaux parmi les articles de salle de bain, 300 blocs d’un poids total de plus de 355 kg. contenant de la cocaïne pure.

En Malaisie et à Singapour, deux récents faits divers dépassent les frontières des pays. Un homme, Nagenthran Dharmalingam, et une femme, Harun Jamani, sont condamnés à mort pour trafic de drogue. Mais l’un étant déficient intellectuel, l’autre une mère célibataire aux abois financièrement, la pertinence de ces condamnations pose question dans ces deux pays.
Et pour l’activiste Nathaniel Tan, qui a publié un édito appelant à la grâce de Nagaenthran, cette affaire en rappelle beaucoup d’autres : « En 30 ans, je n’ai jamais entendu parler d’un trafiquant au sommet d’un réseau arrêté en Malaisie ou à Singapour, ou bien même seulement recherché. Dans le cas de Nagaenthran, on parle de 42 grammes. 42 grammes ! Un homme handicapé en plus. Et ils parlent de lui comme si c’était Pablo Escobar, ou un cerveau du crime ! Et puis, la justice est censée être dissuasive, or on voit que toutes les condamnations n’ont jamais eu d’effet dissuasif vu le nombre de nouveaux cas. »

L’histoire est étonnante : de paisibles grands-pères espagnols, tous âgés de plus 80 ans, et accusés de blanchir des centaines de milliers d’euros provenant du trafic de drogue. S’agit-il pour autant d’un gang d’octogénaires, de papis investis dans le crime organisé ? Oui et non ! Oui, parce qu’ils sont bien accusés de blanchiment.
Et non, parce qu’a priori ce ne sont pas ces personnes âgées qui sont à l’initiative. Ils ont été recrutés par un avocat, Juan Ramón García Crespo, accusé de complicité avec un trafiquant de drogue, Juan Andrés Cabeza du groupe Auto Salón (Voir la video), et utilisés pour jouer les hommes de paille dans la Communauté valencienne. Six hommes qui vivent chichement, certains dans des maisons de retraite publiques, d’autres dans des logements sociaux, touchant parfois le minimum vieillesse.

Ce mercredi soir, vers 22h, une puissante Audi RS6 est arrivée au péage de Reventin-Vaugris. Mais le conducteur de la berline de luxe s’est rendu compte que le passage en direction de Lyon était surveillé par des douaniers. L’homme derrière le volant a alors décidé de faire demi-tour au milieu des voies de circulation de l’A7.
L’Audi noire a parcouru alors plusieurs kilomètres, circulant à contresens sur la bande d’arrêt d’urgence pour tenter de semer les forces de l’ordre à ses trousses. La voiture des trafiquants a finalement été abandonnée, toujours sur la bande d’arrêt d’urgence peu avant la sortie de Chanas. A l’intérieur, les douaniers ont découvert une centaine de kilos de cannabis dans ce véhicule faussement plaqué.
