THE ringleader of a multi-million pound drugs ring, his girlfriend and two associates have been jailed after officers dismantled an organised crime group. Abdul Hamid - who is starting an 18-year jail term today - ran the Tariq drug line selling cocaine mainly in Chelmsford, Maldon, Heybridge and the Dengie Peninsula. During the investigation, officers worked out that the drugs line was prolific, and operated around 20 hours a day, every day, potentially making millions of pounds in profit. The profits were laundered through five businesses Hamid and his partner Danielle Stevenson-Roberts ran in Maldon, including two restaurants and a tanning salon.
