Diamant Sinani, who's 23 and from Guildford Park Avenue in Guildford, was convicted at Ipswich Crown Court on Wednesday 10th February for possession with intent to supply class A drugs, possessing a driving licence with intent to deceive, and driving with no licence or insurance.

He's been sentenced to 32 months in prison.

It comes after police from Suffolk's South Sentinel team had reason to stop a black Peugeot 207 on Murray Road on the 12th January.

During a search of the car officers discovered a kinder egg with a number of wraps of white powder, suspected to be cocaine.

He was taken to the station and subsequently charged.

PC James Moughton of the Sentinel team said: "This conviction of Sinani is yet another example of Sentinel's record of proactivity, reaping great results for our communities overall.

"The technology we use allows us to intercept offenders to disrupt activity, such as Sinani's links to organised drug criminality.

"We can also seize their assets and then convict offenders to protect our local communities."

The Sentinel team provides extra coverage of the county's roads to try and proactively disrupt serious and organised crime, and increase police visibility.

Anyone who has information about drug use in their community is asked to contact local policing team son 101, or you can report it anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
