A COCAINE dealer has been jailed after he was caught selling the drug in Rugby.
At Warwick Crown Court, Arian Varfaj, 53, of no fixed abode, pleaded guilty to being concerned in the supply of class A drugs and was jailed for 39 months.
In December last year, detectives were patrolling Rugby when they saw a suspicious car in Oxford Street.
After watching a suspected drugs deal, they rushed over and detained the driver, Varfaj, and found cocaine, cash and the phone he was using to deal.
Det Cons Matthew Rapkins said: “These toxic drugs bring poverty, misery and crime wherever they go.
“We are constantly out across the county on plain-clothed patrols and we will continue to target anyone who is willing to sow misery and harm in their community.”
