A Cardiff teenager was caught with £1,500 worth of drugs on him in Bute Park when police approached him after they suspected he was dealing. Mohammed Radman, 18, was said to have come from a “caring and loving family” but things had “gone awry” after he started using cannabis, a court heard.
Radman was caught with heroin and cocaine when police officers approached him last year. On the afternoon of December 6, police officers witnessed Radman and another male approach a group of people in Bute Park who they believed could be class A drug users. After a member of the group made a phone call, Radman and the other male approached with their hoods up.
After Radman was detained by police, he was found with £120 and was then searched at a police station. A lock knife, 15 half grams of heroin deals, 27 crack cocaine 0.4 gram deals, and 0.9 grams of cannabis were found, along with a further £276.50, £20, and a Samsung phone.
