A man caught selling drugs in Daventry has been jailed for two years.
Oltion Stafasani, aged 20, of no fixed address, was arrested on The Hollows playing field on January 31, thanks to reports by residents. He was carrying 40 wraps of cocaine and £900 in cash.
Stafasani admitted one count of possession with intent to supply a Class A drug, and was sentenced to two years’ imprisonment at Northampton Crown Court on Monday, March 17th.
Officers from Operation Fragment ran the investigation, a partnership project working to tackle crime, anti-social behaviour and environmental issues in Daventry.
PC Adam Colton, from Operation Fragment, said: “It is fantastic to see Stafasani receive a decent custodial sentence, which reflects the harm illegal drugs cause to individuals and communities."
“The public are the eyes and ears of policing, and this result shows just how vital information from communities is to effective and robust policing."
“In just a week we went from asking people to tell us what they knew to having someone charged and in court admitting their guilt, and that person is now starting a two-year jail term."
“I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who contacted us with their concerns and shared what they knew about drug-related activity in our town."
“Please keep information like this coming, to help us take swift action to protect Daventry from all forms of crime.”
