Worcester man jailed for cocaine dealing in city
31 year old Abdul Mumin has been handed a 30 month sentence
A cocaine dealer from Worcester has been jailed for 30 months, following an operation by police tackling drug activity in the city.
31 year old Abdul Mumin from Northfield Road was arrested in March and was sentenced at Worcester Crown Court yesterday (Wednesday 21st May).
Mumin was found in possession of mobile phones and drugs when he was stopped by police - and assaulted an officer during his arrest, as he attempted to destroy evidence.
As well as the 30 month sentence for possession with intent to supply cocaine, he was also two months, to run concurrently, for assault by beating of an emergency worker.
He's been ordered to pay a victim surcharge of £187.
DC Olivia Sheward, of South Worcestershire Proactive CID, said: “On Thursday 27th March officers from CID made a successful effort to arrest Mumin as part of an operation targeting drug dealing lines. As a result of this a significant quantity of Class A drugs were recovered.
“We hope today’s sentence shows we will not tolerate drug dealing in our county and the harm it reaps upon our communities.
“We will always act upon intelligence, and will continue to disrupt, target and apprehend those who are involved dealing drugs.”
