It has been a huge operation
Nine members of organised criminal groups who were operating out of Nottinghamshire and two other counties have been jailed for 58 years between them. The drugs networks, worth hundreds of thousands of pounds, also operated across three Lincolnshire and Lancashire locations and made almost £20,000 in less than 60 days.
During warrants carried out at a flat rented by Kelvin Tutani, 27, of Yarborough Road, Lincoln, a shortened shotgun was found. Evidence showed both he and Babatunde Omotade, 27, of HMP Lincoln, had handled the weapon. During warrants issued at addresses of those involved in the Jimmy Line, more than £27,000 cash – some stashed in bundles in a rucksack – was seized, along with a variety of weapons. Criminal property, including clothing, jewellery, handbags and electrical goods were also seized from Williams’ Lancashire home. It is estimated that between September 2020 and May 2021, the OCG would have made up to £104,220 from their Lincoln drug deals.
“Investigations found that there were multiple OCGs operating and dealing drugs in the city centre, as well as several lone operators. We wanted to combat this prolific County Lines activity and the associated crime that drug dealing brings; there are very clear links between drug dealing and crimes such as burglary, robbery, and other violent offences.
