A man from Gedling was caught with drugs hidden in his underpants when he was searched by police following a vehicle stop.
More drugs were found on the floor where 29-year-old Richard Wigman was standing after the car he was driving was stopped by officers in Lillington Drive, Bulwell.
Wigman was arrested and forensic tests on drugs seized confirmed them to be cocaine and MDMA, also known as ecstasy.
A large quantity of cash and mobile phones were also found after Wigman was stopped at around 4pm on 5 November 2019.
Wigman, of Beckett Court, Gedling, went on to plead guilty to supplying a Class A drug and possession with intent to supply a Class A drug.
He was jailed for two years and four months when he appeared at Nottingham Crown Court for sentencing on Monday (March 7, 2022).
Inspector Christine Busuttil, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “The force continues to work relentlessly to identify those involved in the supply of illegal drugs in our county.
“Drug crime can have a significant harmful impact on individuals and communities and will never be tolerated by Nottinghamshire Police.
“Our priority is to remove drugs and dealers from our streets and I hope this sentencing sends a clear message to those who think this sort of criminal behaviour is acceptable – if you try and sell drugs, you can expect to be caught and expect to go to jail.”
