One member, Tristen Aslanni, 29, was jailed for 25 years for firearms and drug offences in June 2016.

He was seen collecting a suitcase and rucksack from a house in Crouch End.

Police officers searched the house in connection to his arrest and found a staggering £6million pound drug stash, including cocaine, and a Skorpion machine gun with a silencer.

It is not known whether the house was owned by the gang.

Because Albanian gangs import so much cocaine into Britain, the National Crime Agency believes this is what led to the so-called ‘county lines’ gangs in Britain.

Some gangs groom young children to take drugs out of London to sell it in quiet towns, and in other areas of the country.

A spokesman at the National Crime Agency said groups like these are expanding and increasing in number.

The spokesman said: ‘Albanian crime groups have established a high profile and degree of influence within UK organised crime, and have considerable access to the UK drug trafficking market, particularly cocaine.’
