“We recognise the harm that comes with the supply of drugs into an area, and we are committed to dealing with those responsible for such criminality.

“We hope these sentences send out a clear message that drug dealing will not be tolerated in South Wales, and we will do all we can to remove harmful drugs from our streets.

“We continue to encourage people to contact us with any information or concerns relating to drugs supply in their community.
