JUSTICE FOR CRIME BOSS ENFORCERS

A GANGLAND enforcer who targeted an innocent couple’s home to frighten them into paying off their son’s huge drug debt has been jailed for 14 months.

Robert Notman tried to extort money from the addict’s mother by targeting her home and demanding she repay her son’s £80,000 debt.

The 45-year-old thug made two 160-mile round trips to slash tyres and smash windows to terrify the parents at their quiet residential villa, Dundee Sheriff Court was told.

He and fellow henchman Lewis Goldfarb had been sent to Dundee by their mystery underworld boss in Glasgow to “persuade” the couple to pay up.

Notman and 39-year-old Goldfarb admitted trying to extort money from the mother on December 5, 2022, by telling her that her son owed money to people in Glasgow.
