Zemzadja, of Shenley Road in Borehamwood in Hertfordshire, was taken to Bury St Edmunds police station for questioning and subsequently charged with drug and driving offences. 

On Friday, May 31 he was sentenced to two years imprisonment after pleading guilty to being concerned in the supply of cocaine and using a motor vehicle without insurance. 

Sergeant George Laflin of the West Sentinel team said: "This result highlights that action will be taken to those who continue to distribute drugs and impact our local communities.

"If you are affected by the issue, we encourage you to report drug dealing and drug related anti-social behaviour to Suffolk police to help prevent further offences in the county."
