Officers executed simultaneous warrants at addresses in Severn Street, Bulwell, Grafton Court, Radford, and Eltham Close, Aspley, on Thursday 6 July 2023 following a detailed investigation into the supply of drugs and criminal gangs.
They discovered large amounts of Class A drugs as well as cash, multiple mobile phones and other drug dealing equipment during searches of the properties.
Anton Sylvester was found with pockets full of cash at Eltham Close.
The investigation found Sylvester used taxis to make frequent visits to the other two addresses and met up frequently with his accomplices.
A key found at Eltham Court unlocked the front door of the property in Severn Street.
When officers simultaneously forced open the doors at Grafton Court, they were confronted by Leon Wilson who was leaving the property and appeared to be in a hurry.
When they searched his rucksack, officers found large amounts of Class A drugs and drug dealing equipment.
Further cocaine and heroin were found inside the house and experts say the total street value of drugs found in the Grafton Court raid to be up to £9,800.
Even larger amounts of Class A drugs were discovered stashed inside a safe at the Severn Street address.
Experts say the cocaine alone would have fetched up to £80,000 when dealt on the streets.
The tenant of the property, Natalie McCann, was later arrested by police.
Sylvester, aged 36, was jailed for a total of 10 years when he appeared at Nottingham Crown Court for sentencing on Monday (18 December).
He had earlier pleaded guilty to possession with intent to supply heroin and cocaine and possession of criminal property.
Twenty-four-year-old Wilson was jailed for three years after pleading guilty to possession with intent to supply heroin and cocaine.
McCann, aged 41, was given a two-year jail sentence suspended for two years after admitting possession with intent to supply heroin and cocaine.
