According to the Telegraph,two Turkish sailors who were caught with the biggest haul of cocaine seized in the UK have been jailed for a total of 42 years.Three tonnes of Class A drug,with a street value of £500 million,was recovered from the ocean-going tug MV Hamal,about 100 miles off Aberdeen.The drugs were found hidden in a specially adapted secret ballast tank in the Tanzanian registered vessel,which sailed from Istanbul to Tenerife and then to the North Sea,where it was intercepted by the Royal Navy frigate HMS Somersey and the Border Force cutter HMC Valiant.Mumin Sahin,47 and Emin Ozmen,51 who were found guilty of drugs offences after a trial at the High Court in Glasgow,were jailed for 22 years and 20 years respectively.The judge Lord Kinclaven told the men the quality of drugs was ''not only significant but massive' and said drug trafficking had a ''devastating impact'' on people and communities.He added ''You were involved in a most serious operation of commercial scale involving the transportation of cocaine by ship,in an operation which crossed international and indeed intercontinental boundaries''.Lord Kinclaven told the ship's captain Sahin,he was ''not at the top of the drugs tree'' but had played an important role in the offence,while Ozmen's role was ''to some extent a lesser one''.Officer boadred the Hamal last April following a tip-off from the French customs body DNRED.After it docked in Aberdeen they drilled through a steel plate into a hidden compartment to find 128 bales of cocaine weighing 3.2 tonnes,with an estimated street value of £512 million.The entry to the space was found under a wardrobe in one of the crew's quarters,with the opening cemented over.Sahin and Ozmen were found guilty of being concerned with the carrying and concealing of cocaine on the ship between February 20 and April 23 last year,and of being concerned in the supply of cocaine between April 21 and April 23.The first offenders,who have worked in the shipping industry since leaving school,continue to maintain their innicence.Charges against four other men were found not proven.One more photo below.
