A 30 year old Riddlesden man has been jailed for nine years for his role in a conspiracy to flood the streets of Bradford with class A drugs.

Bradford Crown Court heard that father of four Mohammed Javed, of Bradford Road, Riddlesden, conspired with Bradford businessman Arshad Zaman Khan and when officers searched his home found £89,000 as well as several phones.

Javed had pleaded guilty to conspiring to supply drugs and possession of criminal property at an earlier hearing and has now been locked up for 9 years.
