A Prudential Center resident who sells t-shirts celebrating drug use and drug kingpins was arrested today on charges he ran a full-scale drug distribution center out of his apartment.

Taghi Tajgardoun, 28, pleaded innocent today in Boston Municipal Court to charges of trafficking in cocaine, possession of a Class B substance with intent to distribute, possession of a Class D substance with intent to distribute, possession of Class B and C substances and three counts of violating the state's drug laws within 1000 feet of a school, according to the Suffolk County District Attorney's office. He was ordered held in jail in lieu of $1 million bail - and ordered to give up his passport.

Tajgardoun was arrested at a downtown UPS store where he'd gone to pick up 10 pounds of pot that authorities had earlier intercepted, DA Dan Conley said.

Conley said that at Tajgardoun's apartment at 790 Boylston St., investigators found more than 800 grams of cocaine, two bags holding crystal meth, several containers of prescription painkillers, five more pounds of marijuana, digital scales, equipment for sealing plastic bags, cutting agents, more than $25,000 in cash and three Iranian passports in his name.

"Judging solely by the evidence, we're looking at a sophisticated drug distribution point," Conley said of Tajgardoun's apartment. "Investigators seized cocaine in trafficking quantities, suggesting that he was moving it to low-level dealers."

Tajgardoun is scheduled to return to court on Jan. 7.

Tajgardoun runs an online shop selling t-shirts with slogans such as Smoke Me - I'm dope and with collages of Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar. He also co-owns a South Boston real-estate concern.

Innocent, etc.
