Police have released an image of a dealer who was jailed for holding a drugs line between Didcot and Slough.
Irfan Mascuud was found to be holding the AJ drugs line earlier this year.
The 22-year-old, of Haswell Crescent, Slough, pleaded guilty to being concerned in the supply of class A drugs and was sentenced at Oxford Crown Court on October 21.
Alexandra Boshell, prosecuting, told the court that Mascuud was in a vehicle which was stopped by police.
A burner phone was seized and bulk marketing messages to drug users were found.

The court heard that Mascuud had four previous convictions for six offences.
These included drug offences and wounding with intent.
Ms Boshell told the court that Mascuud had a significant role and an expectation of significant financial advantage.
Peter Du Feu, mitigating, said that Mascuud's family had come from Tanzania.
The barrister said: "He's fairly despondent at the moment. He wants to re-enter society in a law-abiding way."
Judge Michael Roques said: "A burner phone was found linked to the AJ drugs line.
"You were holding the line and were responsible for sending the messages.
"You must have had an understanding of the scale of the operation."
Mascuud was jailed for a total of 52 months. An order was also made for the deprivation of the phone seized.
