Eight people have now been charged after cocaine with an estimated street value of £1 million was seized.

By 1 September, seven men had been charged with conspiring to supply a class A substance.
As part of continuing enquiries, Billy Wray was arrested at Luton Airport on 7 October.
The 22-year-old, of Ridge Way, Crayford, has since been charged with conspiring to supply cocaine and has been remanded in custody to appear at Medway Magistrates’ Court on 8 October.
The other seven suspects are:
