23-year-old Kian Gwyther pleaded guilty at Swansea Crown Court to being concerned in the supply of cocaine, possession with intent to supply crack cocaine, and possession of cannabis.

The guilty plea followed a police raid at his Penlan home, where burner phones were concealed within a pillowcase in Gwyther’s bedroom and in his jacket. He was also found in possession of amounts of crack cocaine and cannabis.

Gwyther was sentenced to 30 months in prison.

Sergeant Luke Tucker from South Wales Police said: “Kian Gwyther is yet another sad example of a young man who thought that supplying illegal drugs to others would prove profitable for him.

“Instead, all it has done is result in him losing the next few years of his life to prison.

“We hope that upon his release, Kian chooses to stay away from illegal drugs and makes a better life for himself.”
