Gang leader jailed for supplying cocaine and ketamine

Mohammed Laher was jailed for seven years and four months

The leader of a Bradford drug gang has been jailed after admitting supplying cocaine and ketamine worth £460,000.

Mohammed Laher was jailed at Bradford Crown Court on 15 May, for seven years and four months, for conspiracy to supply cocaine.

The sentence will run concurrently with a sentence of five years and four months for conspiracy to supply ketamine.

Det Insp Chris Rukin said Laher "had a number of criminal associates working on his behalf who carried out significant roles in this enterprise".

He added: “I’m pleased that his leading role has been reflected in the sentence handed down by the court."

Laher admitted his role in a plot involving the wholesale supply of drugs on the streets of West Yorkshire and neighbouring counties.

Laher's sentence follows other associates in the same operation who were sentenced last year.
