Police officers, with help from NPAS and PD Wez, retrieved the discarded items, which included mobile phones, cash, car keys – and crucially, a shotgun.

Both men were arrested and charged with firearms offences, with heat ramping up as the evidence piled up.

Guilty Pleas, Convictions, and Sentences

• Dayyaan Mahmood, 19 from Dereham Close pleaded guilty to possession of a firearm and a knife. He was jailed for five years last Friday (10 October).
• Adnan Haider, 21 from Nansen Road pleaded not guilty but was found guilty after a week-long trial. He was convicted of possession of a firearm and a knife, driving while disqualified, and driving without insurance. Haider was sentenced to seven years behind bars on the same day.

West Midlands Police confirm the pair are now serving time, a clear warning to anyone thinking of wielding weapons on the streets.
