A heroin and cocaine dealer has been jailed for six years for offences in Slough.

Two large knives, drugs and equipment for processing drugs were found when police searched a property after reports it had been cuckooed by drug dealers.

Fabian Ilo, aged 21, of Romford Road, Newham, was at the address in breach of a court order on March 24, 2022 and was arrested.

Inspector Peter Lawman of the Problem Solving Team said: “This is an excellent result.

“The evidence we secured showed conclusively that Ilo was heavily involved in drug dealing.

“Because the investigation was eligible for fast-track forensic work, it enabled the case to be heard sooner in court.

“I am pleased that Ilo has been convicted and has been sentenced for his crimes which have a detrimental impact on others."

Ilo, 21, was sentenced on Wednesday, September 28, for one count of possession with intent to supply cocaine and one count of possession with intent to supply heroin.

This followed a trial at Reading Crown Court where he was convicted for the offences.

As well as his prison sentence, Ilo forfeited a quantity of drugs and cash, and was ordered to pay a victim surcharge of £190.

The knives found at the property were destroyed by police.
