Heroin dealing ring's 'major player' loses appeal
A TURKISH immigrant described by a judge as 'a major player' in a major heroin dealing ring - has failed to win a cut in his 20-year jail term.

Suleyman Yildiz was jailed at Sheffield Crown Court last October after admitting conspiracy to supply heroin.

He was caught when police stopped a car containing heroin with a street value of £1.75 million on the M1 at Catcliffe, near Sheffield, and linked him to it.

He pleaded guilty to the charge at the first available opportunity and Judge Alan Goldsack QC, sitting at Sheffield Crown Court, sentenced Yildiz to 20 years, saying he was a trusted member of a nationwide heroin conspiracy.

 
Yildiz challenged his sentence at the Criminal Appeal Court in London - but three judges ruled the sentence was not excessive and condemned the 52-year-old from Edmonton, north London, to serve the term.
