Pair are guilty of £2m navy drug smuggling plot - Portsmouth Today: "convicted Raul Beia, 39, and Dean Langley, 20, at Portsmouth Crown Court yesterday.
They were arrested in the city when they and Abdul Banda, 34, who previously confessed to organising the Columbian end of the operation, went to meet Teresa Matos, a rating on board HMS Manchester, which had been involved in anti-drugs patrols in the south Atlantic and had docked in south America.
But she had already been arrested the day before when the ship docked in Plymouth last August.
A total of 8.51 kilos of cocaine - worth around £2million - was discovered in Matos's locker on board the Type 42 destroyer.
Matos, 36, of Contsworth Court, Gateshead, had also previously pleaded guilty in court."
