More than £120k worth of drugs were discovered
Craig Dineen, 30, was one of three who transported cannabis worth thousands of pounds from south of the border to areas in and around Glasgow.
McMillan's brother Craig, 36, was sentenced to 18 months’ imprisonment for drugs offences and a fourth gang member, Stephen Hamilton, 31, was given a community payback order requiring him to carry out 225 hours of unpaid work. Those conversations linked the gang to a haul of controlled drugs and cash totalling more than £2million.
A month later, surveillance officers stopped the transporter van and apprehended the McMillan brothers and Dineen. “We are targeting all people who threaten communities across Scotland, not only drug couriers but also those who direct their movements. With each case of this kind, we can help reduce the harm these drugs inflict on those communities.”
