A 20-year-old Slough man has been jailed for two years and eight months after police found £9,000-worth of heroin and crack in his home.

Amar Mahmood, of Mildenhall Road, pleaded guilty to two counts of possession with intent to supply a controlled drug of class A, namely crack cocaine and heroin, and one count each of possession of a controlled drug of class B, namely cannabis, and possession of criminal property.

At Reading Crown Court on Tuesday (October 18) he was sentenced to two years and eight months imprisonment.
