Two Birmingham brothers who tricked a pensioner into accepting a delivery of 2.7 kilos of heroin hidden inside weightlifting belts have been jailed for nearly 22 years. Mohammed Javaid, 44, and Mohammed Nadeem, 29, from Shenstone Road, Smethwick, told the elderly mother of an ex-partner that the packages from Pakistan were gifts for their own mum. In fact there was 2.7 kilos of heroin worth £250,000 hidden inside six belts that were delivered to the family in West Bromwich. The brothers were snared last June by the Serious Organised Crime Agency (SOCA) who collected data from the brothers’ unregistered pre-paid mobile phones. Robert Davies, prosecuting, told the court that the victim in the case was the vulnerable 60-year-old mother of Javaid’s ex-partner. Mr Davies added: “The men used this law-abiding family knowing that they would be entirely off the radar of the police. “Javaid was still in contact with the mother of his ex-partner, who trusted him, and with the daughter of his ex-partner who considered him to be her step-father.” The court heard that four weight lifting belts arrived in April 2011, addressed to somebody called Mr Cameron. A second batch of six belts was sent from Pakistan to Heathrow Airport in June 2011, but were intercepted by the UK Border Force. The belts were found to contain 2.7 kilos of heroin and were delivered by a SOCA officer in a “controlled delivery” ahead of a raid where the victim was initially arrested.
