Sisters caught dealing MDMA, heroin and cocaine are ordered to pay back £300,000 - after laundering huge profits through 'beauty business'

Drug-dealing sisters at the centre of a huge trafficking operation have been ordered to pay back thousands of pounds of their ill-gotten gains. A total of 17 people were jailed in December 2020 after Greater Manchester Police smashed a cross-Pennine drugs ring, seizing more than 60 kilos of heroin and cocaine and £300,000 in criminal cash.
Shazia Dinn, 44, led a Bury-based crime group together with her older sister Abia Din, 47, a court was told. A beauty business - The Beauty Booth - was set up in Bury as a front to launder dirty money made from vast profits, police said.
The conspiracy branched out to include drug addicts and those indebted to dealers across Greater Manchester and Yorkshire, who were recruited as couriers to carry the drugs and cash across the borders.
Shazia Din, of The Drive, Bury, pleaded guilty to conspiracy to supply class A drugs, namely cocaine and heroin; conspiracy to supply class A drugs, namely MDMA; conspiracy to supply class B drugs, namely cannabis, and conspiracy to convert and transfer criminal property. She was jailed for 15 years.
Abia Din, of Woodman Drive, Bury, pleaded guilty to convert and transfer criminal property. She was convicted by a jury of conspiracy to supply class A drugs namely cocaine and heroin; conspiracy to supply class A drugs, namely MDMA; and conspiracy to supply class B drugs, namely cannabis. A judge jailed her for 18 years.
Now the Din sisters - and others convicted under the conspiracy - have been hit with confiscation orders under the Proceeds of Crime Act - POCA. GMP revealed on Tuesday that at a recent POCA hearing held at Manchester Crown Court, the judge confiscated a total of £345,031 from seven individuals.
