INSPECTOR Les Fry, of Dorchester Police, said after the case: “This is a really good result for the community and will send a message to all those people concerned in the supply of controlled drugs.

“Dorset Police takes the supply of drugs very seriously and we will continue to target those concerned.

“For every person selling drugs there is a victim, either those using drugs or indirectly as victims of drug-related crime,” said Insp Fry, pictured.

He added: “This was a really good operation and the arrest of these individuals and their subsequent conviction and jailing has removed persistent dealers of controlled drugs from the community for a long time.”
