Police Arrest
Officers tracked down Hussain, who denied the offences during a police interview, stating, “It’s all lies.” Despite this, he was arrested after cocaine and cash were discovered during the search.
Court Verdict
Hussain, of Rose Hill Street, Rose Hill, was charged with being concerned in the supply of heroin and cocaine. He pleaded guilty to both charges and was sentenced on Wednesday, 15 April at Derby Crown Court.
