GANGSTERS' GO-TO TECH GUY BARRED

A DRUG trafficker who set himself up as a tech expert for gangsters has been hit with a crime order to thwart his involvement in the underworld.

Ian Sweeney, 53, was jailed for two years at the High Court in Glasgow on October 15 after he admitted being involved in serious organised crime and being concerned in the supply of controlled drugs, including cocaine and cannabis, between March and May 2020.

Sweeney, of Salsburgh in Lanarkshire, raked in a fortune by offering advice and equipment to underworld figures, which allowed them to sweep cars and properties for bugs planted by crimebusters.
