Police carried out a drugs raid on a property in Newport this morning (Monday), arresting a 47-year-old man.

A 47-year-old man from Newport was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply a class a drug.
He remains in custody at this time.
This latest raid comes as part of Hampshire Constabulary’s ongoing investigations into the supply of drugs on the Isle of Wight.



























































































String him up. Scum.
Handy living so near the Prison. Only have to drone it in from your bedroom window, or lob it over the wall in a ball with the dog wanger or a good fishing rod a reel.
Always was rumoured there was more criminals outside of the wall than what was contained within.
No wonder so many wearing fur coats up there.
Yeah but given the sort of person, it’d be like all the sort flexing “legit” Stone Island, Gucci, Y-3, Canada Goose etc.
So probably faux fur.
i own the house have no criminal record and pay my taxes i never worn any of these brands i have had my house targeted 3 times and my phone taken with nothing found.
Keep up the good work – this is amazing! But throw the books at them PLEASE!
It’s up to the courts to throw the book at them not the police
you have to do something for that ??????
I’m not condoning drug use but the war on drugs is lost, prohibition just makes criminals and gangsters. A completely new approach is needed.
Glad to see the class a drugs being taken away.
Nasty stuff will all rot your brains and make you an arrogant twat.
No drugs were found at my house i have no criminal record i work pay tax the house has been targeted 3 times with nothing found even taking my phone say no more. the man in question was arrested for asking for a warrent which wasnt produced when entering the house for a third time
Well done again Police. I hope the public keep the momentum going and report drug dealers so that eventually they might get the message that they are an unwanted drain on civilised society.
I am aware that locking people up in jail is costly but there are no other deterrents .
Financial penalties are just an occupational hazard. They just sell more drugs to pay the fines.
Lives and families are destroyed by drugs both for victims and ultimately dealers families
If you suspect drug dealing then report it. It is a scourge on the country and indeed the world .
The police arrested this man simply because he asked for a warrent no drugs were found because he doesnt deal drugs.This house has been targeted 3 times with nothing found even taken our phones and nothing found on them. The owner of the house who has never had a criminal record in her life.waste of my taxeswhich i pay
