A PWLLHELI drugs bust has led to two jail sentences after drug dealers were caught planning an operation to sell drugs to youngsters at a music festival.

Jordan Ross Williams, 24, from Bangor and 18-year-old Angharad Carol Jones from Caernarfon appeared before Caernarfon Crown Court and were jailed for Class A drugs related offences in August 2016 in Pwllheli.

The criminal duo had intended selling their illegal wares at the Glass Butter Beach music festival, according to North Wales Police.

Williams was imprisoned for two years and Jones for 18 months.

Investigating Officer PC Barbara Roberts at Pwllheli Police Station said: “Those few in our communities who supply class A controlled drugs must realise there is a consequence to their actions and they will go to prison.

“Williams and Jones were arrested after a pre-planned operation aimed at preventing class A drugs being sold to young people at a music festival and potentially exposing them to risk.

“Our goal was achieved and a large quantity of controlled drugs were seized.

“As a result people were kept safe.

“I welcome the sentence and hope it reassures the public that where necessary North Wales Police will take a robust stand against those who supply controlled drugs.”

“In line with the force’s Operation Scorpion we are fully committed to the investigation of serious and organised crime and eradicating it from our communities and I’d reiterate that anyone with information regarding the production and supply of controlled drugs or anyone they believe is involved in organised crime should contact North Wales Police.

“Information can be passed to police via the web live chat http://www.north-wales.police.uk/contact/chat-support.aspx or phoning 101.

“If you’d rather pass information anonymously then phone Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
