Hide AdPanayi was jailed at Portsmouth Crown Court today after admitting possession of a class A drug with intent to supply, and two charges of possession of class B drugs with intent to supply.
A Hampshire police spokesman said: ‘Drugs supply is often connected to other offending, such as high levels of violence or even the exploitation and abuse of vulnerable adults and children.
‘This is why we take such a tough stance on drug dealing, and we encourage the public to continue to provide information to us about issues in your area so we can build a stronger picture of what is taking place.’
Hampshire police urged anyone who see anything suspicious to call police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
