Brothers jailed over £250k drugs haul

THREE brothers caught with more than £250,000 worth of drugs after peddling cocaine, MDMA and ketamine to students made the ‘stupidest mistake of their lives’, a judge said.

Filmon Goitom, 36, Yannick Goitom, 21, and Nils Tesfu, 22, were the dealers behind the ‘Ricky’ drugs line.

Police were alerted to the operation after discovering a business card with the drugs line phone number outside student accommodation in Manchester city centre. A ‘preferred area’ where the dealers would organise drug dropoffs was outside the Joshua Brooks ‘student nightclub’ in the city, Manchester Crown Court heard.

The brothers, with both younger siblings having been promising mixed martial arts fighters prior to their incarceration, were rumbled after police scoured phone data and CCTV footage. They have all now been locked up.
