Emablo denied two counts of possession with intent to supply class A drugs, but was found guilty and jailed for four years at Cambridge Crown Court on Wednesday (16 September).
DC Vicky Speirs said: “I’m pleased the jury have seen Embalo is guilty and have helped put a dangerous man behind bars. He has only just been released for a similar offence so it’s clear he hasn’t learnt his lesson.
“Often drug dealing and violence go hand-in-hand, making it vital that we catch the perpetrators and bring them to justice.”
