Young men from London found selling heroin and cocaine from pensioner's flat in Swansea

Young drug dealers from London were found operating from the flat of a 70-year-old man in Swansea.

Police tracked down Kayon English and Tammam Al-Ziadi after becoming aware of a new heroin and cocaine dealing gang operating in the city known as the "JP line". A subsequent investigation showed how the JP line had travelled back and forth between London and Wales with the defendants over a two-month period, and had been sending out bulk text messages to customers advertising drugs for sale.

Sending the defendants to prison, a judge said while some young men visited Swansea to enjoy activities such as surfing the pair had come to "poison the community" with drugs, and he told them they were wasting their youth.
