Multiple UK Drug Dealers Jailed in Large-Scale County Lines and Cannabis Operations

Mohamed Farah, a Swedish national involved in a drug supply network distributing around 100kg of cannabis across Northampton, Buckinghamshire, and Essex, was sentenced to four years in prison after being arrested in Dunstable upon his return to the UK. Police had initially taken action against his co-conspirators while Farah was abroad in Saudi Arabia and later Sweden, but a tip-off led to his capture. Similarly, Viktor Karavaqiri and other members of the drug ring have received prison sentences totaling over 15 years. Separately, Samuel Watts was sentenced to over four years after being found coordinating cocaine sales from prison, where he was already serving time for drug offenses. In Peterborough, Mohammed Fiaz was jailed for two and a half years for supplying heroin and crack cocaine to vulnerable users during the force-wide Operation Hypernova crackdown on county lines drug dealing and human trafficking. These cases illustrate law enforcement's ongoing efforts to dismantle drug networks and bring offenders to justice, regardless of attempts to evade capture or continue criminal activity from prison.
