A drug dealer was found with heroin and cocaine in his pants after he and a colleague were pulled over by police in Cardiff. He was due to head home to the Caribbean three weeks after his arrest and now faces deportation.
Augustus Simmons, 25, and Kenneth Obih, 47, were in a Fiat 500 when their car was stopped by police on July 19 last year, a sentencing hearing at Cardiff Crown Court heard on Tuesday. Officers became suspicious after Simmons got out of the car in Grangetown and carried out what appeared to be a drug deal with another man.
A search of the car took place and two iPhones, a Samsung phone and £380 in a Louis Vuitton bag were seized. Obih gave a false name to police, claiming he was called Jonathan Medina. Both defendants were taken to Cardiff Bay police station where Simmons told officers he had drugs in his crotch area.
