West Midlands police released a rogues’ gallery of the drug dealers who appeared in court during the week and just about all of them were non-White.

Drug dealers operating a pizza delivery style heroin and crack cocaine network have been jailed for almost 100 years.

The 33 dealers were operating in Birmingham when they were arrested following a major operation by West Midlands Police in February.

Officers arranged a series of dawn raids across the north of the city and broke up the major drugs network.

More than 100 officers conducted a series of dawn raids over four days, arresting dozens of suspects. They recovered class A and Class B drugs worth more than £20,000 along with almost £35,000 in cash and a firearm.

A total of 33 drug dealers appeared in Birmingham Crown Court during the week where they were received jail terms ranging from nine years and six months down to a suspended sentence.

Shamshaire Ali got the most jail-time and was jailed for nine years and six months.

The operation targeted street-level dealers as well as those further up the criminal hierarchy.

The court heard that crack cocaine and heroin was delivered door-to-door ‘like a pizza delivery service’.
