Eighteen months after a raid on a Cambridge industrial, two drug dealers have been jailed for supplying cannabis. Earlier this year a third man was jailed for a similar offence after being caught fleeing the scene.
Police were carrying out a warrant at Cave Industrial Estate in Fen Road, Cambridge, in March last year (2023) in connection with drug supply and money laundering when Sulejman Dauti hastily drove past with two passengers inside.
Officers stopped the vehicle and Sulejman Dauti was searched and found with two mobile phones and £388 in cash.
One of the passengers, Mehmet Dauti, was also searched and found with two mobile phones.
The pair were arrested, and their phones were reviewed and found to contain messages linking them to dealing cocaine.
