A 48-year-old man from Norfolk convicted of drug offences and money laundering is to have £312,457 seized from his bank accounts.
Norwich Crown Court has granted a confiscation order against the assets of Larry Mayes from King's Lynn.
He admitted five offences of concealing criminal property between 2003 and 2007 in building society accounts and by buying a £19,000 Saab car.
He was jailed for five years for the original offences in November 2007.
At Norwich Crown Court Christopher Morgan said Mayes had benefited by £400,000 from criminal activities and his assets, which could now be realised by a confiscation order, were £312,457.
Mayes was found flushing drugs down his bath's plughole by police when they raided his home in Mariners Way, Kings Lynn, to arrest him in February last year.
