A Canadian who organised an international cocaine smuggling operation in Edinburgh has been jailed for nine years and seven months.
Paul Fitzgerald, 32, travelling on a false passport, had the drug sent from Bolivia in the drawers of toy furniture, a court heard on Friday.
Police seized cocaine with a street value of £60,000 and LSD worth £4,500.
At the High Court in Edinburgh five other members of the drugs ring were sentenced to a total of 26 years.
Judge Lord Hardie said he would recommend that Fitzgerald and Vito Carmona, 20, from Barcelona, should be deported once they have served their time.
