A VOLUNTARY worker has been jailed for two years and four months for street dealing heroin and crack cocaine.

Mohammed Haseeb, 26, of Fairbank Road, Girlington, Bradford, was caught selling wraps of Class A drugs from a car to pay off a debt and to mend a broken window at the family home, Bradford Crown Court heard today.

He pleaded guilty to two offences of possession of Class A drugs with intent to supply them, two charges of supplying them, and one offence of possession of around £250 as criminal property.

The court heard that all the offences took place on March 4.

Haseeb's barrister, Andrew Dallas, said he was desperate to avoid getting into debt and borrowed money from a criminal source.

"Once they've got you, they know how to keep you. Their smiles take a sinister turn," he said.

Mr Dallas said Haseeb had a wife and two children and was carer for his mother.

He had been street dealing for three weeks and had no previous convictions for similar offending.
