I suspect there may be a fair bit more to that story than has been published.

Mind you, 14 years works out at only 25.5 days per each of the 200 boxes !

Hello Guys

Certainly making an example of these guys. Google the name Imran Khansia and you will see that maybe there is more to this story.

Probably found the boxes when investigating the Money Laundering then.

Reminds me of the headline in our local paper - "Speeding Motorist gets 5 Years", where the "Speeding Motorist" had a boot full of Dope and a couple of Guns, but according to the paper, it was the speeding that got him locked up.
