DRUG BUST TRAPS BIG DEALERS

DRUGS squad chiefs have dealt a stark warning to Perth’s big-time pushers: “You’re not the untouchables”.

The message comes days after Tayside Police Chief Constable John Vine praised the efforts of his force in his annual report after a year-long operation secured convictions of 13 individuals in Scotland – totalling 37 years of jail time – and smashed a major racket in the process.

The Big County crackdown on drug dealers was the main focus of Operation Flogger.
