WASHINGTON, Muharram 11, 1437, October 24, 2015, SPA -- A man convicted of leading an international drug trafficking and money laundering ring has been sentenced to 30 years in prison, AP reported. Gregory Joel Sitzmann, who was convicted in 2012, was sentenced Friday in federal court in Washington. He'll be placed on 10 years of supervised release after he gets out of prison. Prosecutors said his drug ring operated in the United States, Canada, Mexico and other nations, and said Sitzmann used airplanes, luggage and trucks with secret compartments to move the drugs around the world. U.S. Attorney Channing Phillips said the drug conspiracy involved more than 1,300 kilograms of cocaine, and said Sitzmann had been involved in drug smuggling since at least the 1980s. A Hells Angel's motorcycle gang in Montreal was among the recipients of the cocaine shipments. --SPA 02:37 LOCAL TIME 23:37 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
