Lorri Jeffery |
Two
drug dealers, arrested after a total of four kilos of cocaine and
cannabis worth £230,000 was seized during a police raid, have been
jailed.
Lorri
Jeffery, 30, of Pullman Place, Eltham received seven years and Luke
Roffey, 30, of Plum Lane, Woolwich received two years imprisonment.
Both
pleaded guilty at Woolwich Crown Court to possessing drugs, with
intent to supply.
On
May 21 officers from the Trident Gang Command executed a Section 23
Misuse of Drugs Act warrant at Jeffery's residential address – a
one-bedroom second-floor flat.
They
seized over a kilo of cocaine - with a street value of in excess of
£200,000.
While
searching the address Jeffery received a text message on his phone
stating “I am outside”.
Officers
went downstairs where Roffey was ringing the buzzer to the flat.
He
was apprehended and the bag retrieved, which contained 3 kilos of
cannabis, with a value of approximately £30,000.
A
number of Rolex watches and a quantity of cash were recovered when
his home address was searched.
Detective
Constable Harvey Brooks from the MPS Trident and Area Gang Command
said: "This investigation shows that we will seek anyone
actively involved in the drugs trade and use all the powers available
to us to combat it.
“If
you deal in drugs we will arrest you and put you in front of the
courts to face the consequences of your actions”.
