Fatjon Gjeshnika claimed the drugs were for him and his friends to enjoy over the Christmas holidays

A drug dealer who was caught with a stash of cocaine on Christmas Day has been jailed for more than four years.

Fatjon Gjeshnika, 32, of Soham Road, Stuntney, Cambridgeshire, was found at that address by police, and claimed the drugs were for him and his friends.

However, mobile phones and fake ID documents proved otherwise, Cambridgeshire Police said.

Gjeshnika admitted possessing drugs with intent to supply and was jailed at Cambridge Crown Court last week.

He also pleaded guilty to two counts of possession of identity documents with intent.

On Thursday, Gjeshnika was sentenced to four years and three months in prison.

PC Rachel Thomas, said: "We're committed to putting those who deal drugs before the courts.

"I hope this sentence will send out a clear message that those involved in these activities will be pursued and brought to justice."
