Members of drugs gang jailed for over 30 years

Gang members Ryan Sage, 29, Devon Williams, 26, Corey Hughes, 26, Dominic Drinkwater, 20, and Presley Power, 22, supplied cocaine, crack cocaine, and cannabis in the Newport area.

In September last year Gwent Police officers found nearly 4kg of cocaine with a street value of £400,000 as well as £25,000 cash, Class B drugs, and a car after they raided properties in Newport, Risca, Crosskeys and Cardiff as part of Operation Dagger.

Cardiff Crown Court was told Sage and Williams were the leaders of the group.

The court heard the two men directed and organised the supply of the Class A and B drugs via several drug lines between Risca and Rogerstone.
