County Lines Drug Dealer Locked Up in Horsham Crackdown
A County Lines drug dealer running a Class A drug empire in Horsham has been jailed after a sharp Sussex Police sting.
Joseph Sseruwo, 31, from Pimlico, masterminded the notorious ‘Milky’ drugs line, flooding West Sussex streets with crack cocaine and heroin.
Three Years Behind Bars for Class A Supply
Sseruwo was sentenced to three years in prison at Lewes Crown Court on May 1. He admitted to four drug offences and money laundering charges.
The bust came on April 1 when undercover officers from the Specialist Enforcement Unit caught him doing drug deals in East Street, Horsham. As officers closed in, he tried to ditch a bag containing over 100 wraps of Class A drugs between two bins.
A search of a linked property uncovered more cash and evidence, sealing his fate.
Drug Charges Laid Bare
- Possession of crack cocaine and heroin with intent to supply
- Involvement in the supply of crack cocaine and heroin
- Possessing or using criminal property
Detective Inspector: ‘We’re Taking Down Dealers’
Detective Inspector Gary Jacobs said:
“Our plain-clothes officers regularly patrol to disrupt deadly drug supply lines wrecking our communities.
Sseruwo’s ‘Milky’ line pushed crack cocaine and heroin in Horsham. Thanks to our investigation, he pleaded guilty in court. This is another criminal gang smashed in our town.”
The police vow to keep up the pressure on County Lines networks, protecting communities through proactive patrols and intelligence-led crackdowns.
