Man Jailed For 44 Months For Involvement With White J Drug Line

A 22-year-old man has been jailed for 44 months for his involvement in running the White J drugs line in Bognor.

Police received information about a drugs gang operating in the Bognor area and conducted a warrant executed under the Misuse of Drugs Act at three addresses and a storage container on Friday 30 January.

Along with drugs and cash which were seized by officers, Ivan Mizzi was located and arrested.

Mizzi, of Maxwell Road, Littlehampton, was held in police custody and charged the next day with being concerned in the supply of cocaine, crack cocaine, heroin, and cannabis, and acquiring, using or possessing criminal property.

He appeared at magistrates' court on 31 January and was remanded into custody. 

The case was sent to Portsmouth Crown Court where Mizzi appeared on 20 April and pleaded guilty to all the charges.

He then appeared at the same court for sentencing on 12 June where he was given a 44-month custodial sentence.
