Default Heading H1
Three men have been charged with drug dealing offences following a Kent Police county lines investigation into the supply of crack cocaine and heroin in the Medway area.
The investigation began in March 2025, when officers identified a phone line allegedly being used to advertise and coordinate the sale of Class A drugs across the region.
As part of the operation, a search warrant was executed at a property in Chatham on Wednesday 4 June, where one suspect was arrested and controlled drugs seized. Further arrests followed in the West Midlands on 15 June, and again in Medway on 26 June.
Suspects Charged
- Jamal Robinson, 24, of Vernon Road, Birmingham, has been charged with being concerned in the supply of heroin and crack cocaine. He appeared at Medway Magistrates’ Court on 28 June and was remanded in custody ahead of a hearing at Maidstone Crown Court on Friday 25 July.
- Eugenio Fernandez, 48, of Rochester Street, Chatham, and
- James Cordell, 20, also of Vernon Road, Birmingham,
were previously charged with the same offences and will also appear at the July crown court hearing.
Kent Police have confirmed the investigation is ongoing as part of wider efforts to disrupt county lines drug networks and safeguard vulnerable people from exploitation.
