Two Swansea men jailed for drug offences

Two men from Swansea have been jailed after being caught supplying drugs in the city.

David Lewis, 49, from Cwmbwrla and Kyle Andrews, 31, from Cwmrhydyceirw, were arrested after officers from South Wales Police identified them as being involved in the supply of crack cocaine and heroin.

It was uncovered that both men were in possession of a number of mobile phones advertising the sale of drugs.

They were charged following their arrest on January 27 for conspiracy to supply Class A drugs – crack cocaine and heroin.

Both men pleaded guilty to the charges and were sentenced at Swansea Crown Court on Friday 29 July to four years imprisonment each.

Lewis was also sentenced for two separate offences of possession with intent to supply heroin and possession of heroin, all of which will run concurrently.
