A multi-agency law enforcement taskforce has uncovered an international drug cartel believed responsible for multiple ice and cocaine importations through Melbourne docks.


The alleged leaders of the group are of Albanian descent and although they have few criminal convictions are considered major organised crime figures who have been influential for years.


The leaders were identified by a secret Australian Crime Commission probe, which resulted in the Trident docklands taskforce setting up a major investigation into the group.
