A judge has condemned the "vile" trade in class A substances as he jailed four men involved in the large-scale distribution of drugs across the UK.
Paul McIntyre, David Hughes, Scott Gardner and Isaac MacKinnon received sentences ranging from five years to over nine years, for their role in the supply of drugs from Liverpool to Scotland.
The quartet was snared in a wider police operation that recovered drugs worth almost £850,000 and led to a number of other arrests, officers said.
