UK: Pair told to pay back ill-gotten drug gains
Peterborugh Evening Telegraph
Thursday 27 Dec 2007 A PAIR of crooks will be forced to pay back thousands of pounds made from their seedy livelihoods. Police were successful in obtaining confiscation orders against Martin Timothy (47), of Fenton Way, Chatteris, and Troy Jolly (19), of Pendula Road, Wisbech. Timothy will have to pay back £8,797.10 and Jolly £10,000 after financial investigators got on their case. Timothy was jailed for 15 months after 821 cannabis plants were seized from a property in the Honeysome Road industrial estate in Chatteris in June, as well as a substantial amount of prohibited ammunition. Jolly was given 175 hours unpaid work for possession with intent to supply cannabis, after officers discovered cannabis, a stun gun and £1,680 of cash at his home. All confiscated assets go to the Home Office. Once a year, one-sixth of the total confiscation amount for Cambridgeshire Constabulary is handed back to the force, while another sixth goes to the Crown Prosecution Service. Crime manager for central division Detective Chief Inspector Paul Fullwood said: "This is excellent work from the financial investigators involved, and all officers who worked on these cases." http://www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk/news/Pair-told-to-pay-back.3619361.jp
