A Sheffield man has been jailed for three years after being convicted of supplying Class A drugs in the city.
Police found a large quantity of Class A drugs during a raid on the home of 24 year old Sohail Khan in Earl Marshal Road in January.
CCTV showed Khan dealing drugs outside his home and he was charged with with supply of heroin and the supply of cocaine.
He maintained his innocence but ultimately admitted the charge at Sheffield Crown Court, which handed down the sentence last Tuesday (October 22).
PC Gareth Webb, of South Yorkshire Police, said:
“We are committed to tackling drug offences in our communities and removing drugs from the streets.
“I am pleased Khan is now behind bars as this serves as another reminder that we will not tolerate the supply of drugs in Sheffield and South Yorkshire. We will continue to pursue those dealing illegal substances in our county.”
