A drug ring running out of Watford has been dismantled after several arrests were made.

Around £6,000 in cash was seized along with quantities of cocaine and equipment to help the preparation and sale of the Class A drug.

Hertfordshire Constabulary says that the network was supplying the drugs to areas across Hertfordshire and north London.

Jordan Raeburn, of Sitwell Grove in Stanmore, pleaded guilty to being concerned in the supply of cocaine and has been remanded to custody for sentencing at St Albans Crown Court on August 12.

Another three people - a man from Watford, a man from Edgware and a woman from Hatfield – were arrested and will also appear in court on August 12.

Sergeant Dave Perkins said:  “This type of drug network involves manipulating young people into becoming drug runners, cuckooing the most vulnerable members of our society and exploiting drug users with violence and threats often used against those who do not comply.”
