An Albanian drug lord has revealed the reason he believes British police will never defeat the gangs smuggling cocaine into the UK.

The gangster, who spoke to MailOnline on the condition of anonymity, said a key practice carried out by Albanian mobsters was stopping the police from completely halting their criminal activities in the UK.

Since 1995, Albanians have been important players in the cocaine trade in Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands and Spain having well-established networks of supply.

To enter the UK market in late 2000, they used as a motto 'sell cheap and sell more'.

One Albanian in London, who served 17 years in prison as a part of a large organised crime group in the cocaine trade, explained that an arrest didn't necessarily mean the end of the road for that cocaine smuggling cell.
