Merseyside's Kingpin Brothers: Gang Betrayal and the Operation Manhattan

The Mulhare brothers, Joseph and Gregory, led a major drug-supply ring spanning England and Scotland — until a supergrass brought it all down. Operating under Operation Manhattan, the network relied on encrypted communications, hidden vehicle compartments, and sophisticated logistics to move drugs across two nations. Key informant Ronnie Bateman provided crucial inside evidence that helped investigators map out the full structure of the organisation. The case ultimately ensnared 24 defendants and led to the seizure of over £1 million in drugs and cash, exposing the scale and reach of one of Merseyside's most organised criminal networks. #MerseysideCrime #UKTrueCrime #OrganisedCrime #MulhareBrothers #DrugCrime #Lykstage #LykstageVideo #LykstageCreator #LykstageCommunity
