The gang used blocks of cheese to hide the massive haul of drugs.
A criminal gang operating out of Blackburn have been jailed for more than 40 years after concealing large amounts of cocaine in cheese. On May 3 2023, Lancashire Police raided a unit at the Old Fire Station in Blackburn and found a £17.2 million haul of cocaine. The unit belonged to 46-year-old Saleem Chaudhri, who had hidden the large amounts of cocaine inside blocks of Gouda cheese.
On July 3 2023, Lancashire Police arrested Mohabath and outside his home in Dean Road, South Shields, was an Audi containing snap bags of cocaine. A property linked to him in Jarrow, South Shields, was searched and in the basement police found a significant amount of cash, a cash counting machine and suspected Class A drugs of varying weights. When police searched Chaudhri’s home in Waterside, Blackburn, they found nearly £10,000 in cash.
