A cocaine dealer and cannabis grower has been jailed for three and a half years.

Darryl Skym, 25, of Coronation Terrace, Senghenydd, was sentenced at Cardiff Crown Court on Tuesday, March 23.

He pleaded guilty to being involved in the supply of cocaine, as well as growing cannabis.

PC Rhys Jones, of Gwent Police, said Skym’s sentencing “will take another dealer off our streets and help deter others from committing these crimes”.

PC Jones added: “We will continue to deal with these offences robustly and bring any offenders to justice, and, again, would like to thank the community for their ongoing support.

“If you have any concerns about drugs in your local area and have information that can help us remove their harmful effects on our communities, you can report it to us via 101.”

Four drug dealers jailed for a combined seven years
