A drug dealer caught in Brighton faces deportation after he was jailed for 40 months today (Thursday 27 November).
Ervis Doksani, 22, was arrested as the result of an investigation by the National Crime Agency (NCA) last month and would have received a longer sentence had he not pleaded guilty.
Doksani was jailed for more than three years in total by Judge Mark Van Der Zwart after the defendant admitted having cocaine with intent to supply.
The NCA said: “An Albanian drug dealer has been jailed for more than three years, following a National Crime Agency investigation.
“Ervis Doksani, 22, of no fixed abode, was apprehended by armed NCA officers in Clarence Square, Brighton, on the evening of Thursday 2 October this year.
“NCA surveillance teams had monitored a series of meetings which led them to suspect that he was dealing in drugs.
“After he was arrested, he was searched and investigators found 12 deal bags each containing small quantities of cocaine inside a mint box and cigarette carton.
“The flat that Doksani had been staying in, in Dyke Road, Brighton, was also searched and a further 108 grams of cocaine, worth an estimated £7,000, was found, some of which had been placed in a frying pan, along with approximately £1,000 in cash.
“On Monday 3 November, he appeared at Lewes Crown Court where he pleaded guilty to possession with intent to supply class A drugs.
“A judge at the same court today (27 November) sentenced him to 40 months in prison. He will face deportation after serving his sentence.”
NCA Branch Commander Sara-Jayne Moore said: “Our investigation established that Ervis Doksani was a drug dealer making money from supplying cocaine.
“Working with law enforcement partners, we are determined to do all we can to disrupt the organised criminals involved in pedalling class A drugs at every step and protect the public from this threat.”
Make sure his pockets are empty before he departs
I don’t notice patterns
Good, deport and never allow back.
What ever happened to those arrested in the e39 hove bust?
Coming over here and taking our jobs ……disgraceful behaviour
Why was he here anyway?
Brexit
I guess least he was entrepreneurial. Maybe they didn’t like the fact he won’t be paying tax on his earnings. Maybe deport some of the grifters on UC who are English but don’t want to earn a penny.
The majority of people on UC actually are in work. Your opinion is just so wide of the mark it worries me. How can someone be so hoodwinked into disbelieving the truth must be down to the media agenda or populist political rhetoric.
