A TEEN who ran his own drugs line to pay off a £1,200 cannabis debt has been jailed for almost four years.

Saeedul Ali was already on a suspended sentence for dangerous driving when he met undercover police officers to sell them heroin and crack cocaine.

The 19-year-old ran the Sunny line, a phone number ending 222 that officers posing as addicts rang on three occasions in May and August to order the class A drugs.

The drugs were handed over in Queens Park and a small park near the County Ground.

Ali already had experience peddling drugs, having been caught as a youth working for the Santana drugs line three years ago.

Ali, of Beckhampton Street, pleaded guilty to six counts of supplying class A drugs.

Judge Peter Crabtree jailed Ali for a total of three years and 10 months, which included six months of the suspended sentence.

The judge told Ali: “Anyone involved in dealing class A drugs is involved in criminality that wrecks lives and destroys the fabric of society or undermines it at least.”
