A 32-year-old woman, who switched from sex work to selling class A drugs to repay a drug debt, has avoided jail.

Irena Gaziova, of Rochester Street, Shipley was spotted selling drugs from the passenger seat of a car by police officers on May 12, 2019, on Manningham Lane.

She was found to have a total of 26 wraps of cocaine, 25 wraps of heroin and 100mg of crack cocaine, in her hand, her waistband and in her underwear - with a street value of £305. Police also discovered three mobile phones and £35 in cash.

Bradford Crown Court heard that Gaziova had a long-standing £200 a day drug habit and had only resorted to selling drugs earlier that day.

She was handed a two year suspended prison sentence with drug rehabilitation requirement.
