SECRECY IS PRICELESS
Using information gained from the EncroChat criminal phone system, detectives from the Kent and Essex Serious Crime Directorate found that Jordan Nicholl and his brother Ryan Nicholl were supplying drugs on a large scale between March and June 2020.
Both men were detained during pre-planned warrants at their respective homes and Jordan Nicholl was sentenced to four and a half years at Canterbury Crown Court on Wednesday 22 June 2022.
The evidence against Jordan Nicholl stemmed partly from a police stop on Sunday 9 May 2020, when officers in Deal became suspicious of a blue Renault Megane.
The car was stopped and a search led to an encrypted mobile phone and £315,000 in cash being located and seized.
A forensic review of the notes found Jordan Nicholl's fingerprints on several bundles. Further research showed he had travelled close to where the exchange took place.
Jordan Nicholl, 32, of Atkinson Road, Folkestone, later admitted conspiring to supply cannabis as well as possession of and transfer of criminal property.
