A DRUG dealer has been jailed after having a record-breaking haul seized from him at Slough station.

James Docherty, 52, of Glasgow, was sentenced to 15 months in prison by a judge at Reading Crown Court today (Friday) after being caught with 42kg of diazepam (valium) tablets which had been wrapped in clear plastic bags inside his suitcase.

Docherty, who was carrying £200,000 worth of the blue tablets when caught last September, pleaded guilty after being charged with possession with intent to supply class C drugs.
