Three Men Charged in Major Kent County Lines Crackdown
Three men have been arrested and charged following a major Kent Police county lines investigation targeting the supply of crack cocaine and heroin in the Medway area.
Operation Targets County Lines Drug Dealers
The probe began in March 2025 after officers uncovered a phone line allegedly used to advertise and coordinate Class A drug sales across Kent. Police moved in swiftly, executing a search warrant at a Chatham property on 14 June. One suspect was arrested and controlled drugs were seized.
Further Arrests and Charges
- Jamal Robinson, 24, from Vernon Road, Birmingham, has been charged with being involved in the supply of heroin and crack cocaine in Chatham.
- James Cordell, 20, also from Vernon Road, has faced similar charges linked to the same investigation.
Additional arrests took place on 15 June and 26 June in the Medway area as police continue their crackdown.
Police Urge Public to Help Combat Drug Crime
Kent Police confirm the investigation is ongoing as part of wider efforts to dismantle county lines networks and protect vulnerable people from exploitation.
“Our work to disrupt these criminal gangs and safeguard the community continues. We urge anyone with information on drug activity in Medway to come forward,” a spokesperson said.
