  • Published

A drug dealer has been jailed after eagle-eyed police spotted a car known to be linked to criminal activity parked in a town.

They found Kesti Disha inside the Audi in Ambury Road in Huntingdon in February, together with cannabis, cocaine and mobile phones.

When Cambridgeshire Police searched his home in Saunders Close, they found a cannabis farm with plants worth almost £120,000 together with further quantities of cannabis and cocaine.

Disha, 23, admitted possession with intent to supply cocaine and cannabis and production of cannabis and was sentenced to four years and eight months in prison when he appeared at Cambridge Crown Court on 6 June.

Besjan Disha, 27, also of Saunders Close in Huntingdon, admitted production of cannabis and was given a nine-month sentence suspended for 18 months.

He was also ordered to carry out 150 hours of unpaid work.

PC Chester Lewis, from the Huntingdon neighbourhood team, said: "Thanks to the proactive stop of this vehicle, we've removed a significant amount of drugs from the streets of Huntingdonshire and put another drug dealer behind bars."
