  • Adeniyi Adesina, aged 37 of no fixed abode, was convicted of being concerned in supply cocaine & heroin and possession with intent to supply cocaine and heroin and was sentenced to a total of six years nine months imprisonment.
  • Ibrahim Nyei, aged 27 of Birmingham was convicted of two counts of possession with intent to supply cocaine and heroin and was sentenced to a total of four years imprisonment.

Sergeant Richard George said: “Based on intelligence we executed a warrant in June last year in James Street. While Adesina was arrested at the scene, Nyie made off in a car and was soon stopped and arrested and Bullock was later arrested in Neath town centre. Thanks to further information from members of the public drugs were also recovered from a footpath near the property.
