Man hid 56 wraps of class A drugs in his trousers
A man who produced 56 wraps of class A drugs from his trousers after being stopped by police has been jailed.
Nabil Aziz, 24, was stopped in Newmarket Road, Cambridge, after officers received reports that the car he was driving was linked to drug dealing.
Aziz claimed he did not have anything on him when he was pulled over, but just before the search began he produced a bundle of wraps from his trousers. These later turned out to be crack cocaine and heroin with a street value of more than £1,100.
Officers also seized £225 in cash and two mobile phones, which contained messages linked to drug dealing.
Aziz, of no fixed abode, pleaded guilty to possession with intent to supply class A crack cocaine, possession with intent to supply class A heroin and driving without insurance.
He was sentenced to three years and 10 months in prison at Cambridge Crown Court on Monday, May 30.
PC Blake Booth, who investigated, said: “Drugs bring a whole host of issues to our communities, including violence and anti-social behaviour.
“We are working hard to rid our county of drugs but also rely on members of the public providing us with information.”
Anyone with information or concerns about drug dealing can report online.
