Dennis Kamau of Morcom Road, Dunstable, pleaded guilty to a count each of possession with intent to supply crack cocaine and heroin.

The hearing took place at Amersham Crown Court on Friday (28/5).

He was sentenced to a total of two years and four months in prison in relation to the incident in April this year when officers from the Aylesbury Stronghold team detained Kamau for a stop and search on Tring Road in the town.

They found a quantity of class A drugs and following a search of an address linked to the 30-year-old, further quantities of crack cocaine and heroin were seized to a value of more than £1,000.

He was charged and remanded in custody, before pleading guilty to the offences.

Investigating officer PC Ben McNeill of the Aylesbury Stronghold team, said:

“We will relentlessly pursue and prosecute drug dealers, who cause untold harm in our communities.

“Through the Thames Valley Police Stronghold campaign, we will actively target those who seek to exploit vulnerable individuals to their own ends and we will not rest until a County Line or a crime group is no more.

“Kamau will now serve a prison sentence as a result of his criminal activity, and I hope that this conviction will serve as a warning to others who seek to profit from such offences.

“Our communities are important to us in tackling these issues, and I would urge anybody who has any information about drug supply to please report this to Thames Valley Police on 101 or online.

“You are also able to report 100% anonymously via the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
