Six men have been jailed for their roles in the 'Ace' drugs line
A Toyota Yaris in a quiet Bury car park was at the centre of a £500k drugs racket. The seemingly abandoned vehicle was closely watched by the leader of a gang in the Greater Manchester town.
Prosecutor Joshua Bowker said that between January and June 2023, the group - led by Hassan Hussain - conspired to supply huge amounts of crack and heroin. Police were, however, successful in bringing them down. Those running the line - at the 'top' of the conspiracy - took steps to distance themselves from the operation, all the while ensuring they had 'ready access'. They stored the phone and some of the drugs in a Toyota Yaris in a car park on South Bank Road in Bury.
Another property, owned by the Hussain brothers' sister, was also used as a stash house. Drug paraphernalia was found, as well as Azam and Asam Hussain's fingerprints. His brother Asam Hussain, 29, was involved in the handover of the drugs line between the day and night shift and he accompanied co-accused Mohammed Shah Ahmed couriering drugs on the day shift.
When he was arrested, officers found a machete in the boot of his car and £2,420 in cash. He has eight convictions for nine offences.
