Iain Potter (45), Jack Wright (30), and Ross Fathi (46) have been sentenced for their roles in a large-scale drug trafficking operation that utilized Royal Mail to distribute illegal substances across the UK. The gang operated from a distribution center in Edenfield, Bury, where they shipped 1,724 parcels containing drugs valued at approximately £2.2 million between February and April 2025. Authorities seized a variety of drugs, including over 19kg of cocaine, MDMA, ketamine, LSD, and cannabis products. The operation was marked by sophisticated methods such as using fake return addresses and encrypted communication to evade law enforcement. Potter and Wright received sentences of 11 years and four months, while Fathi was sentenced to six years. Detective Constable Liam Smith from Greater Manchester Police emphasized the organized nature of the criminal enterprise and the significant planning involved, stating that the sentencing serves as a warning against drug supply activities.
