Krishen Kumar Bhantoo, 41, of Goldsmith Road, was sentenced to seven years at Croydon Crown Court today. He was intercepted by the UK Border Agency after flying into the UK from Grenada in September with the drugs, which had a street value of around £80,000, in his luggage. He was charged with being knowingly concerned in the importation cocaine by HM Revenue and Customs. Peter Avery, assistant director of criminal investigations for HMRC, said: “Our investigators continue to play a key role in protecting communities by reducing the availability of drugs on UK streets.
“Our efforts will continue to reduce the devastating impact drugs have on individuals and local communities. ”
