As part of ‘Operation Eternal’, the Met Police infiltrated Encrochat - a messaging service organised crime groups used to communicate.
Lee Nervais was known as a ‘fixer’. His job was to arrange and carry out violent attacks on behalf of some of the world’s most dangerous organised crime groups. He did this by conversing with other criminals on an encrypted messaging platform called Encrochat, which helped users disguise their identities by giving them a unique “handle” made up of a random noun and adjective.
“Dangerous” Paul Fontaine was found guilty of conspiracy to murder, as well as a string of other offences, after police tracked his involvement in the transfer of a firearm which was subsequently used in the murder of 29-year-old Abdullahi Mahmoud in Enfield, London, on 19 March 2020. Just weeks later, he helped get a gun to Cardiff career criminal Frankie Sinclair, which was to be used to murder members of a rival group.
