Crime Lord Gary Hardy Jailed for 23 Years over 'Assassination Kit' Gang
- On Friday, July 27, Gary Hardy, Ronald Knowles, and Steven Houston were sentenced at Nottingham Crown Court for conspiring to manufacture and sell assassination kits.
- The sentencing followed a police investigation that uncovered a large-scale, well-established criminal enterprise active since at least November 2022 producing firearms in the East Midlands.
- The kits contained handguns, silencers, magazines, gloves, and converted ammunition designed to inflict serious harm, with more than 33 guns made and over 800 blank rounds seized across eight UK locations.
- Judge Mark Watson sentenced Hardy to 23 years, Knowles to 13 and a half years, and Houston to 25 years, noting they each contributed important roles and disregarded human life through this enterprise.
- The case demonstrates the police closed one of the largest firearm factories in the East Midlands, removing weapons that could have caused serious injury or death if undetected, and sends a clear message against such criminality.
