A man who used a County Line to supply Class A drugs in Horsham has been sentenced to three years in prison.
Joseph Sseruwo, 31, from Peabody Avenue in Pimlico, was linked to the ‘Milky’ drugs line operating in the town centre.
He pleaded guilty to several offences, including possession of crack cocaine and heroin with intent to supply, involvement in the supply of both substances, and possessing or acquiring criminal property.
Detective Inspector Gary Jacobs said: “Officers from the Specialist Enforcement Unit regularly carry out plain-clothes patrols to help disrupt the supply of drugs which cause so much harm in our communities.
“Sseruwo was dealing heroin and crack cocaine in Horsham, using the ‘Milky’ drugs line.
“Thanks to the investigation, he had no choice but to plead guilty when he appeared in court.
“It demonstrates our determination to catch offenders involved in drugs supply, and shows we have broken up another criminal group in Horsham.
“We are pleased with the custodial sentence passed and will continue to work hard to keep our communities safe.”
