The Devon police seized the cryptocurrency valued at 1.3 million pounds. The owner of the funds was sentenced to 15 years in prison.

An interesting incident occurred in England. 36-year-old Ryan Coleman began selling drugs on the dark web. Over the past few years, he expanded his business and started supplying cocaine, ketamine, marijuana, and other illicit substances to various parts of Europe. Within three years, he made a fortune by selling approximately 80 kilograms of drugs—all of these transactions were conducted through the dark web. After conducting extensive investigations, the Devon police successfully tracked down the suspect.

Through careful tracing of the funds, the police were able to identify and arrest Ryan Coleman. As a result of his mistakes, he was sentenced to 15 years in prison. The Devon police’s long-term operation effectively dealt a significant blow to drug trafficking activities on the dark web. Although no specific details about the buyers were uncovered, the police recovered the 1.3 million pounds worth of cryptocurrency, along with other related items.

The operation, code-named “Freebie,” resulted in the seizure of large quantities of drugs and weapons. Numerous digital wallets and computers containing evidence of the illegal activities were also confiscated.
