A south west Wales organised crime gang member has been sentenced to 12 years in prison after cocaine worth over £1m was seized from his property.
Jeffery Davies, aged 53, was sentenced to 12 years for possession with intent to supply after the Swansea Organised Crime Team of South Wales Police seized 14 kilos of cocaine from his address in Ystalyfera, Swansea in September 2022.
The seized drugs had an estimated street value of in excess of £1million.
Davies was sentenced to 12 years at Swansea Crown Court on January 23.
Detective Inspector Marc Gardener commented: “Organised crime has no place within our communities. This result highlights how relentless we will continue to be in our efforts to identify and bring offenders to justice.”
