A man from Lowestoft has been jailed for four years for drug offences.

A man from Lowestoft has been jailed for four years for drug offences. 26 year old Tommie Pearmain of Southfield Gardens in Lowestoft was sentenced to four years in prison on Wednesday 28th February after appearing at Ipswich Crown Court where he pleaded guilty to all offences. It follows a search warrant that was executed by officers from the Serious Crime Disruption Team on Tuesday 28 November last year at an address in Wheatacre near Beccles. Pearmain was arrested and charged with being concerned in the supply of cocaine; concerned in the supply of ketamine and being concerned in the supply of cannabis. At court he was jailed for four years for being concerned in Supply of Cocaine. He was also given two 15 month sentences for being concerned in supply of ketamine and being concerned in supply of cannabis. These sentences will run concurrently with the four year sentence. Investigations into four mobile phones found in the property linked Pearmain to drug dealing via bulk text messages sent out to contacts he was supplying on a regular basis. DI Greg Moore said: “This is another powerful example of how we will seek justice against those who choose to deal in drugs with such criminal activity punished in a court of law. We remain determined to protect and keep our communities in Suffolk safe from the scourge of drugs.” If you suspect drug dealing is taking place in your area or see anything suspicious or out of place, please tell us.
