The faces of five men who were jailed for conspiring to supply cocaine have been revealed.
Police officers who raided a house in Freehold Road, Ipswich, found 500 wraps of drugs, with a street value of £20,000.
Officers also discovered five mobile phones and £12,000 cash in the property, which was described as a "distribution centre", Ipswich Crown Court heard on Friday.
Hayg Boduryan, 33, of Freehold Road, Ipswich; Artan Kastrati, 33, of Hanworth Road, Hounslow; Arxhend Bera and Elvis Feriozolli, both 18, and of Ipswich Street, Stowmarket; and Avenis Dida, 22, and Kastriot Rexha, 24, both of no fixed address, all admitted conspiracy to supply cocaine between December 2020 and July 2022.
Boduryan was jailed for four years, Rexha and Dida for 32 months, Bera for 30 months and Kastrati for 38 months. Elvis Ferizolli was given 18 months youth detention suspended for two years, 100 hours unpaid work and a 30 day rehabilitation requirement.
Matthew Bagnall, for Boduryan, said his client had rented a room in Freehold Road and was involved in the conspiracy for 29 days as a “bookkeeper” after developing a cocaine habit.
Juliet Donovan, for Bera, said he illegally entered the UK and was a drug runner for the operation.
Natasha Nair, for Dida, said he came to the UK illegally and had become involved in the supply of drugs to pay off a debt.
She said Rexha became involved after becoming unemployed.
Peter Spary, for Elvis Ferizolli, said he came to the UK illegally and was taken to Ipswich where he became involved in the drug operation for six days.
He said Kastrati was involved in the drug supply operation for 20 days.
Also before the court were Azem Ferizolli, 22, of Woodward Road, Dagenham; Halit Ferizolli, 33, of Woodrush Way, Romford, and Genart Loca, 21, of Valence Circus, Dagenham.
They also pleaded guilty to conspiracy to supply cocaine and their sentencing hearing was adjourned until March next year when Judge Martyn Levett will hear evidence about their involvement before deciding on what basis to sentence them.
