London, £1.6m Worth of Cocaine and Cash Found in Flat, Two Albanians Charged
Two men have been arrested following 20kg and £25k in cash being found in a flat in Rotherhithe, South East London.
The flat in Helena Square was raided on Thursday 4 March by investigators from the Organised Crime Partnership - a National Crime Agency and Metropolitan Police Service joint unit.
They found the suspected criminal cash and drugs hidden in various places in one of the bedrooms of the flat, which was then seized.
The cocaine would be worth an estimated £1.6m if sold on the streets of London.
Vidiol Muratas and Fatjon Nakaj, who are both Albanian nationals aged 43 and 31, were arrested at the property and have since been charged with possession with intent to supply class A drugs.
They appeared at Croydon Magistrates Court yesterday and were remanded in custody
