Drug dealer linked to Scots deaths has her crime profits seized in murder probe

A female drug dealer connected to the deaths of two men had thousands of pounds of dirty cash seized yesterday.

Police found crack cocaine, a Louis Vuitton handbag and more than £4,000 in Farrah Fadli's home.

The haul was discovered by officers probing the death of Morgan Dunn, 34, who was fatally stabbed in the property by Marius Bauba, 33, last February.

The drugs and cash found during the investigation were seized by Police Scotland and Fadli, who is also known as Gillespie, was jailed last month after admitting dealing the class A drug.

A proceeds of crime hearing yesterday took place at Ayr Sheriff Court in relation to the cash.

Mother-of-three Fadli, 33, was not present in court but solicitor David O'Hagan confirmed the four-figure sum was being confiscated.

Sheriff Colin Pettigrew said: "I make a confiscation order in the sum of £4,065.

"That brings the proceedings to a conclusion."

Last month it emerged Fadli, of Ayr, stashed the rock of cocaine, which weighed 21.84g and had a street value of £880, in her bedroom.

And she also breached bail conditions by going to house party in the town.

Bauba tried to escape justice after killing Mr Dunn by dying his hair and checking into hotels in Dumfries, Gretna and Carlisle using false names.

He died last month after being found stricken in his cell, while serving a nine-year sentence for culpable homicide.

In 2016, Fadli disappeared following the death of John Smith, 52, in Stevenston, Ayrshire.

Craig Munro was cleared of murder but caged for nine years for trying to kill Mr Smith’s nephew, John McDade.

Trouble flared amid claims Fadli was "stirring things up" between Munro and Mr McDade, who had both been her partner.

Following an appeal, she was found with Munro and Allan Robertson, who was cleared of the same charges.
