PC Megan Peroni said: “We hope this sentencing sends a clear message that drugs are a blight on the community and we will not tolerate it.

“The work we are doing is having a huge impact on disrupting and closing down drugs lines, which we know cause such harm to our communities – we reply on information from the public so would urge anyone with information about the supply of illegal drugs to report it.”
