He was later charged with being concerned in the supply of class A and B drugs and with money laundering, and was due to appear before Medway Magistrates Court in Kent today (January 13).
White’s arrest comes during an investigation by the Kent and Essex Serious Crime Directorate into the alleged sale of 6kg of cannabis and 5kg of cocaine between April and June 2020.
The alleged offences came to light following the cracking of the illegal EncroChat mobile phone platform by international law enforcement agencies in the same year.
