A drugs kingpin is facing jail after being convicted over a plot to smuggle £11 million worth of cocaine into the UK hidden inside containers of BANANAS.
Sajid Ali, 56, was arrested at Heathrow Airport in January this year just minutes before boarding a flight to Istanbul, Turkey, where he was living at the time.
He orchestrated a plan to smuggle 139 kilos of cocaine hidden inside a refrigerated consignment of bananas which arrived at London Gateway port from Ecuador.
