Head of Drugs Gang Sajid Ali Convicted After Smuggling Cocaine in Shipment of Bananas

A leader of a criminal gang which tried to smuggle millions of pounds worth of illegal drugs into the UK in a shipment of bananas has today been convicted.  

Sajid Ali, 56, from Birmingham, directed four men – Robert Ball, Mirgent Shahu, Arman Kaviani and Florjan Ibra – in a drug smuggling plot.

Their plan was to move a shipping container, which had arrived from Ecuador with cocaine concealed inside the roof, from London Gateway Port to an industrial estate in Coventry where the drugs could be extracted and distributed by the criminals.

 Ali was convicted of conspiracy to import a Class A drug in Warwick Crown Court today and is now awaiting sentencing.
