A South Norwood drug dealer has been jailed following an investigation that led to 32 people being charged

Between February 4 and 6 this year, officers from Kent Police carried out 36 warrants as part of an investigation led by the Kent and Essex Serious Crime Directorate.

In total 32 people were charged with 67 drug offences.

One of the first men to be jailed as a result of this was Mohammed Miah, 23, of John Street, South Norwood

He was sentenced to four and a half years for being concerned in the supply of heroin and crack cocaine.

Chief Superintendent Nigel Brookes, from Kent Police, said: "These are the first results from a large and complex operation that has caused significant disruption to those who seek to supply drugs in Dover.

"The scale of this activity sends a clear message that there is no tolerance for county lines drug activity in Kent.

"Each day our officers are continuing to gather new evidence and take action against the individuals who bring misery to our communities across the county, and there will be no let-up in our efforts.

"Everyone has a role in fighting drug crime and I would encourage anyone with suspicions of drug dealing to call us on 101 or report incidents online at www.kent.police.uk."
