Altogether police seized a total of �400 worth of class A drugs from Grant.
He admitted possession with intent to supply crack cocaine and heroin and was sentenced at Harrow Crown Court on Monday (10).
PC Paul Connelly, investigating officer, said: “This is an example how police stop and search tactics have identified, disrupted and imprisoned a class A drug supplier operating on the streets of Brent.
“It is well documented that controlled drugs blight the lives of members of the community and Brent police will continue to identify and convict those concerned in drug offences.”
