The gang – led by Daniel Degisi from Bury – was involved in the supply of cocaine in wholesale amounts through a drugs line that operated across the north west and locally in Manchester through a network of street dealers.
The court heard how Degisi tried, unsuccessfully, to keep the operation at arm’s length, leaving the groundwork to the rest of the group. Unfortunately for Degisi, detectives were quite easily able to pinpoint his every move and link him to the conspiracy.
