Two Hong Kong nationals have been jailed over the biggest methamphetamine haul seized by police in WA history.
Jian Tat Ng and Chin Yeung Ng were among four men charged in September last year after raids on a Canning Vale home and at an apartment and hotel room in Perth's CBD uncovered 320kg of the drug, worth an estimated $320 million.
The District Court of WA heard during sentencing on Monday that the pair were found with about 5kg of methylamphetamine in their Adelaide Tce apartment.
Chin was jailed for 12 years and will be eligible for parole after serving 10 years.
Jian, who Chin asked to store 42.2 grams of the drug in his room, was sentenced to two years and six months in jail, and will be eligible for parole after 15 months behind bars.
