Dealer reported to police by mother after she found class A drugs in his coat pocket

A young drug dealer's mother called the police on her son after she found heroin and crack cocaine in his coat pocket. He was still in bed when police arrived and discovered 129 wraps of class A drugs worth more than £5,000.

Ahmed Karshe, 20, of Cardiff, was living with his mother when she discovered the drugs and cash in a black puffer jacket on December 16 last year. She called the police who arrived at her home at around 1.30pm when her son was still in bed.

A sentencing hearing at Cardiff Crown Court on Wednesday heard Karshe's mother had placed the drugs in a white medical bag. In total, the bag contained 115 wraps of crack cocaine and 14 wraps of heroin, with a street value between £5,120 and £5,660. Also found was £1,217 in cash.
