[mhm]

A light aircraft used by a gang convicted of drugs trafficking is to go on eBay with a reserve price of £12,000.

Northamptonshire Police said the plane was used to transport cocaine with a street value of £1.7m into the county.

Six men were jailed in November 2012 and the plane was seized under the Misuse of Drugs Act.

Any money raised from the sale can be used for policing activities and community projects, a spokesman said.
