LONDON (Reuters) - A British father who arranged for an armed gang to rob his drug-dealer son of cocaine worth 4.5 million pounds was jailed for 20 years Tuesday.

Martin (news - web sites) Williams, 60, passed information to three underworld figures that his son Shane had 76 kilos of cocaine in a house in Sanderstead, south London.

"Your role was despicable," Judge Stephen Kramer at London's Old Bailey told the father. "You are a family man, a carpenter. Your motive was pure greed."
