UK: Cannabis factory gang members jailed

BBC News

Friday 26 Aug 2011

Four men who were part of a gang that grew and supplied high-strength cannabis with a street value of about £20m a year have been jailed.

About 7,000 plants were seized during police raids at large detached homes in Berkshire, Oxfordshire and Surrey.

The Vietnamese men, who were trafficked into the UK, were jailed for between 21 and 30 months at Reading Crown Court.

They were essentially the "gardeners" of the cannabis factories. The gang leaders will be sentenced on Friday.

Ngol Son Le, 34, Thong Nugyen, 36, and Bein Bui, 31, all of no fixed address, were jailed for 21 months.

Cong Pham, 31, of Clarendon Road, Reading, Berkshire, was jailed for 30 months because he had a previous conviction and had been deported from the UK but later returned to Reading.
