€4.3m assets of 'drug trafficker' frozen

An alleged drug trafficker’s property empire and luxury cars worth nearly £3m (€4.3m) have been frozen by crimefighters in Belfast, it was revealed tonight.

The Assets Recovery Agency (ARA) was granted an Interim Receiving Order at the city’s High Court after claiming Wai Keung “Nicky” Cheung amassed the portfolio through narcotics, fraud and tax evasions.
