A drugs 'Queenpin' who ran a county lines heroin and cocaine empire on her own while boasting of her luxury lifestyle on Snapchat has been jailed. Henna Ashraf, 25, posted pictures of bundles cash on the social media app and went to the swanky London district of Knightsbridge for £500 haircuts at upmarket salons.

A court heard she also showed off her wealth by taking pictures inside her flash Mercedes car before she was eventually rumbled by police. Last month she became the first woman across the West Midlands force area to be convicted of running a county lines drugs operation by herself.

Ashraf was jailed for three-and-a-half years at Birmingham Crown Court on Tuesday. The court was told the drug dealer made her money by running the 'Mase Line' from her home in Birmingham to Torquay, Devon - 180 miles away.
