A man from Bury is one of nice people due in court today, Friday, after homes in the borough, Bolton and Wigan were raided this week.

Yasir Mahmood, 37, of Andrew Street, Bury, is set to appear at Manchester and Salford Magistrates' Court after being charged with conspiracy to supply class A drugs.

Zulfiqar Khan, 38, of Lorne Street, Bolton, Mohammed Amjad, 28, of Green Lane, Bolton, Haroon Rashid, 19, of Loxham Street, Bolton amd Tahir Ilyas, 35, of Moorfield Close, Bolton, are set to be in court.
