A drug dealer has been jailed after thousands of pounds of drugs were found at a house in Derby.

Officers saw Faid Naif dealing drugs in Uttoxeter New Road on 17 January, and he was detained by officers who found wraps of suspects class A drugs. 

Naif, after initially giving false details, told officers he did not live in the area but a quick check of a set of keys that were found on him led officers to a nearby address in the same road.

There they found the 26-year-old’s dealing base with £6,000 worth of drugs, including crack cocaine and heroin, found by officers.

Further evidence of the drugs being bagged up for sale was found – along with digital scales, two knuckledusters, a number of mobile phones, and nearly £1,000 in cash.

Naif, of no-fixed-abode, was charged with numerous offences and was remanded to prison after appearing at Southern Derbyshire Magistrates’ Court on 18 January.

He pleaded guilty to the following offences:

  • Possession with intent to supply crack cocaine and heroin
  • Supply crack cocaine and heroin
  • Possession of criminal property
  • Possession of an offensive weapon in a private place
  • Possession of cannabis

And, after appearing at the same court on 14 April, was handed four and a half years in prison.

DC Hope, who led the investigation into Naif’s dealing, said: “The drugs Faid Naif sold in Derby cause enormous harm to our communities and his jailing is a real positive for those who live in, work in, and visit our city.

“Dealers like Naif bring with them serious levels of criminality and, as is clear from the weapons found, are willing to use very serious levels of violence to ensure their illicit business is able to continue.

“Naif’s drug dealing took place in public, and I have no doubt that people in the local area were well aware of his activities.

“Nobody should have to put up with the criminality that people like Naif bring to our city and I would urge anyone with any information about drug dealing in their area to come forward, in confidence, at any time.”
