A man from Aylesbury has been jailed for drug offences after police discovered 'a large amount of cannabis' during a property search. 

Hassan Khan, aged 24, of Harcourt Green in Aylesbury, has been sentenced to two years and four months in prison, at Aylesbury Crown Court on Wednesday, November 13. 

He pleaded guilty to a variety of drug offences, including possession with intent to supply cannabis and cannabis resin, as well as possession of criminal property, namely £8,364.90 in cash. 

At around 2.55pm on Saturday, September 28, Khan was seen by officers supplying cannabis resin.

During a search of an address, a large amount of cannabis, cannabis resin and cash was seized as well as drug supply paraphernalia.

He was arrested and charged on the same day.

Investigating officer PC Gary Ratcliff, based at Aylesbury Police Station, said: “I hope this sentencing demonstrates the consequences that come with drug supply offences.

“At Thames Valley Police, we will do everything we can to stop drug supply, which often harms the most vulnerable in our communities.

“I would urge anybody who has any information around drug supply to please report this to Thames Valley Police, either online or by calling 101.

“You can also report 100% anonymously via the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
