A huge haul of £1 million worth of cocaine found in a car has been linked to an alleged drugs network in Kent.

Four men are now due to appear in court after police stopped the car while on an operation in Chessington, Surrey last week.

Officers are said to have found about 10kg of a Class A substance in the vehicle.

Police also raided a property in Dartford on the same day - last Thursday - as part of an ongoing investigation.

A search warrant was issued for the address and detectives have since arrested and charged four men allegedly involved with the drugs gang.

They are: Mark Lazarus, 55, of Nightingale Vale, Woolwich, Colin Mugalu, 39, of Havelock Road, Greenhithe, Simon Kambagu, 32, of Sun Court, Erith, and Robbie Dunn, 25, of Hilltop Gardens, Dartford.

All four have been remanded in custody and will next appear at Maidstone Crown Court on September 1.
