London Teen Jailed for Suffolk County Lines Drug Dealing

County Lines Operation Nets Local Dealer

Ahmed was arrested on 1 May at Alexandra Park, Ipswich. Police found his phone packed with contacts linking him to Suffolk’s Class A dealers. He was part of a major County Lines network running drugs between London and Ipswich.

The bust was made thanks to Operation Orochi, a joint effort by Suffolk Constabulary and the Metropolitan Police aimed at smashing these ruthless drug lines.
