Garda drugs unit tracking Mr B for past 10 years

MR B has been a significant target of the Garda National Drugs Unit (GNDU) for the last 10 years.

While he has around 40 criminal convictions, he has escaped any serious convictions in relation to drugs.

He nearly did time in 2003 after he was charged following a huge drugs bust involving himself and English traffickers, but was found not guilty.
