UK Gangster pulls 12 years for selling gun to youth

A gangland kingpin who masterminded a UK-wide gun running racket has been jailed for 12 years after police caught him selling an antique revolver to a teenager. Aqdas Vasi, 32, was arrested after officers saw him hand over an American-made Defender 89.32 Rimfire weapon to Tyrece Weaver, 19.
Vasi was a member of the Fallowfield 'Mad Dogs' gang.
Cops searched Vasi's Audi Quattro convertible and found a British made Bulldog revolver. Vasi admitted charges of selling a firearm and possessing prohibited weapons.

The teenager claimed he was forced to get the gun by Manchester by Herts-based gangs who force kids as young as 10 into 'county lines' drug trafficking.

Milton 'Butch' Jones seeks covid-19 release

Milton 'Butch' Jones, a leader of the notorious Detroit drug gang "Young Boys, Inc.," contracted the coronavirus in federal prison and is seeking compassionate release. Once a feared drug kingpin linked to multiple Detroit killings, Jones is now 65, in a wheelchair and on dialysis three times per week.

In 1982, leaders Raymond Peoples, Jones and 41 lieutenants were indicted. Jones was released after 12 years in federal prison, but was busted again for murder and drug charges. He has served more than 19 years and has a 2027 release date.
At Jones' prison, 306 inmates and 22 staff are Covid positive and 9 inmates have died.
Milton 'Butch' Jones and his crew were called the Henry Ford of heroin. The group was highly effective because of its vertically integrated structure. It was described by the Feds as a "military-like organization chart for narcotics conspiracy."

YBI worked to keep drugs, distribution, and money in separate locations. It used minors exclusively as runners and street level dealers, which made inflitrating the gang impossible. YBI represented a change in gang structure. It also sourced it's own heroin supply, instead of relying on the Italian mafia.

Quebec bikers lose firearm permits

Sûreté du Québec revoked the firearm permits of 11 members of motorcycle clubs sympathetic to the Hells Angels. "Allegiance to organized crime has a direct impact on their privilege of possessing a license to possess and acquisition of firearms." Red Devils, Dark Souls, Devils Ghosts, Devils Riders, Death Messengers, Brotherhood, Rolling Aces, Heaven Demon, Survivor Bikers and Sacrilege clubs were all effected. 'Hangarounds' of the Hells Angels are targets. The Rebel Riders appealed to the Court of Quebec to recover their firearms licenses, but failed. The president admitted that his group wore jewelry showing their support for the HA. Walking around in public with a badge showing support for the Hells Angels is now a recipe for headaches.
The judge said “In our country, owning a gun is a privilege. This privilege is highly regulated and a license is necessary for the possession of such a weapon. ”

Belize's record cocaine haul came from a Narco Jet

On February 27th, 2020, a suspicious aircraft was tracked moving toward Belize airspace. At just after four in the morning, the plane set down on a makeshift airstrip. Authorities swarmed the area to find an abandoned Gulfstream II (G1159A) business jet loaded with a 69 bales of cocaine. At over 1,800 kg, it is the biggest captured haul of its kind for the country.

The use of business aircraft to smuggle drugs throughout Central and South America has exploded with 2020 a record year.
A British Aerospace BAe-125-700A loaded with cocaine made an emergency landing in Quintana Roo in July. It wasn't the first.The cartels use jet aircraft as a net positive risk-reward. The Gulfstream II (G1159A) for example was certified in 1981 and production ceased 4 years later. They are largely out of service around the world, making them very cheap to acquire.

The jets can be had for several hundred of thousands or even tens of thousands, depending on airworthiness and condition. They can also carry a large payload, making them ideal for 'one way' drug missions.

Chinese gangster Kwok Chung Tam loves Canadian legal system

High rollers with known connections to loan sharks deposited vast sums of cash at B.C. casinos and were allowed to regularly 'bend' anti-money laundering laws up until 2015. A BCLC casino investigator said, “It was clear to us there was only one major criminal organization working the casino VIP rooms." It's leader was convicted drug trafficker Kwok Chung Tam, 62.

He is described by police as the boss of Paul King Jin and his underground bank Silver International. Despite being subject to deportation as early as 2000 the gangster is said to still be living in Canada.

Money launderer Paul Jin King was shot and his associate Jian Zhu was killed September 21, 2020
Tam made headlines in 2019 when former and now disgraced Liberal MP Joe Peschisolido’s law firm set up a “bare trust” joint venture with a company directed by Kwok Chung Tam. Tam used that instrument to mask his direct involvement in the acquisition of a 3.7-acre condo project in Coquitlam. The purchase was valued at $7.75m. It was later sold for $14.8m with the law firm helping launder the money.

It was found Peschisolido repeatedly broke the code of conduct for MPs, but since he lost re-election there was no punishment.
A forged Chinese ID Card that shows Tam with the name of an alias.Kwok Chung Tam is a convicted drug trafficker and an alleged kingpin of the notorious Chinese cartel, the Big Circle Boys. The Big Circle Boys dominate the trade of fentanyl importation and trafficking in Canada. Tam has lived in Canada for over 30 years, with immigration trying to deport him for decades. Files stretching to 1988 outline three decades of criminal activity and Tam’s connections to organized crime.

Tam arrived at Vancouver International Airport on Dec. 5, 1988. Tam made a refugee claim, saying he feared persecution. He claimed he would face “severe punishment” from the Chinese government because of his support of pro-democracy student protests.
Court files show cops were investigating Tam for links to organized crime and heroin trafficking as early as 1990. He lead a home invasion and robbery team. In June 1996 his refugee claim was finally rejected. He appealed. A police raid in 1998 found weapons, ammunition and raw heroin. The charges were eventually dropped after an unacceptable court delay. The charges also held up Tam's deportation. Tam was also charged with conspiracy to import and traffic heroin in 1999. Tam was acquitted of these charges in 2002 after wiretap evidence was tossed.

In December 2004, a full 6 months after he was to be deported, Tam received 'stage one' approval to remain in Canada on “humanitarian and compassionate” grounds.
After the 2004 immigration decision, investigations into Tam’s criminal activities continued. Tam was charged with various drug trafficking and possession charges and in 2010 was convicted of possession of marijuana for the purpose of trafficking. He was given a 15-month conditional sentence, which included house arrest and a weapons ban. Throughout the process Tam was again prevented from being deported. In December 2015, following the negative immigration decision from a month earlier, Tam’s lawyer submitted an appeal to the federal court. There is still no date set for Tam's removal.
