      Moment police find cocaine stuffed inside cheese in £17.2m haul

      The Independent - Holly Patrick • 1d

      Lancashire Police found cocaine stuffed inside blocks of cheese in a £17.2m haul, bodycam footage shows. Officers raided a unit in Blackburn in May 2023 where they discovered some of the class A drugs after cutting open blocks of gouda. Other blocks were found in black bin bags ready to be handed to couriers. It is the force’s biggest-ever haul to date. Saleem Chaudhri, 46, was jailed for 27 and a half years at Preston Crown Court on Friday, 12 April, after admitting conspiring to supply cocaine and money laundering. Co-defendant Rieddul Mohabath, 28, was sentenced to 16 years on Monday after pleading guilty to conspiracy to supply cocaine.
