Prison sentences totalling more than 40 years have been handed down to 10 men convicted as part of a crackdown on the organised supply of heroin and cocaine in Leeds.
The men were arrested in a series of raids at addresses across the city in May this year.
Two further arrest phases in July and this month have seen more than forty other people arrested with the majority charged with drugs supply offences.
In this case the group were shown to have been behind a drugs phone line that put £127,000 worth of heroin and crack cocaine onto the streets of Chapeltown and Harehills over a five-month period.
Between October last year and March this year around 20,000 calls were made to the line resulting in around 5,000 drug deals. It was estimated that around two kilograms of heroin and crack cocaine were sold as a result.
The operation was led by Shawn Campbell and Darren Duncan along with a third man who is still being sought by officers.
