It now became known that Dutch drug lord Johnny Gerrard Kock was found dead in his cell at HMP Berwyn in Wales on August 16, 2021.
The 75-year-old K., who served a quarter of a century in prison and narrowly escaped prosecution twice in the past, 'flooded' the streets of Liverpool with cocaine and was regarded as one of the UK's biggest drug traffickers ever. The Antiques dealer who imported up to £1bn of cocaine to the UK died seven years into his 25-year sentence.
