Pair who admitted dealing class A drugs in Lowestoft jailed for total of eight years

Two men have been jailed for a total of eight years for dealing class A drugs in Lowestoft.

Kain Reeve, 21, of Eades Walk, was jailed at Ipswich Crown Court on Friday after he admitted being concerned in the supply of cocaine, possession with intent to supply cocaine and possession of cannabis.

Meanwhile Laimonas Zebrauskas, 19, of no fixed abode, pleaded guilty to possession with intent to supply class A drugs.

Reeve was jailed for five years and seven months, and Zebrauskas was handed a 32-month jail sentence.

It comes after officers from the Scorpion East team searched an address in June and recovered a golf ball-sized amount of cocaine and a small amount of cannabis.

Police also found paraphernalia associated with suspected drug supply, including scales, four mobile phones and SIM cards - with messages related to drug-dealing and use found on the phones.

An associate of the pair was also convicted of possession with intent to supply class A drugs at the same court on Friday.

Lennon Roberts, 20, of Paget Road in Great Yarmouth was handed a nine-month jail sentence, suspended for two years, after admitting the offence.

Police are calling on anyone who suspects that drug dealing is taking place in their area or who sees anything suspicious or out of place to contact them on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
