Shiraz Ahmadzai, aged 19, from Cobden Avenue, Southampton was jailed at Southampton Crown Court today (7 September) after pleading guilty to three counts of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs – cocaine, crack cocaine and heroin at an earlier hearing.

The court heard that on Thursday, 7 January, officers attended an address on Northam Road, Southampton. When they knocked the door, an officer who was standing at the rear of the address, watched a man come out of the back door and throw a package over a neighbouring fence before going back inside.

The package was subsequently located in the neighbouring garden and found to comprise three smaller packages of suspected Class A drugs.

Following examination, it was confirmed that the package contained cocaine, crack cocaine and heroin, with a combined street value of £4980.

Ahmadzai was later charged with three counts of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs and he pleaded guilty to all three at Salisbury Crown Court on 27 July.

Appearing at Southampton Crown Court today, Ahmadzai was jailed for three years and six months.
