Drug dealer caught red-handed in Victoria Road with stash of cocaine and cash.
Proactive Police Nabs Dealer
Officers on patrol spotted a suspicious vehicle parked on Victoria Road. They approached the driver and, due to his unusual behaviour, carried out a search.
Stash Found and Dealer Arrested
The cops uncovered 27 deals of cocaine hidden in a drawstring bag, along with £70 in cash and a mobile phone. The man was arrested on the spot and taken into custody.
He was later charged with possession and handed four months’ imprisonment.
Strong Warning to Drug Dealers
Detective Sergeant Lucy Gentry from West Kent CID said: “This dealer had a significant number of cocaine deals that he no doubt hoped to sell for a considerable profit whilst in Tunbridge Wells.
“Our local patrols, using both marked and unmarked vehicles, are swift to spot anyone acting suspiciously – just like Bilali found out. Our message to dealers travelling into Kent is simple: It’s not a question of if you’ll be caught, but when.”
