Cork cocaine haul: Man pleads guilty in UK court
A English man has today admitted being involved in a plot to smuggle £100m of cocaine into the UK, before being apprehended by the Irish Naval Service.
Stephen Powell (aged 47) from Guiseley, West Yorkshire, was charged with conspiracy to import cocaine following the seizure of around a tonne of the drug on board the yacht Makayabella last month, in an international operation involving the Irish Naval Service and the National Crime Agency.
