A drug dealer who targeted the streets of Crewe has been jailed for 11 years.

Rebaz Mohammed, of Derrington Avenue, Crewe, appeared at Chester Crown Court on Friday 22 August where he was handed the sentence after being found guilty of numerous drugs offences.

The 37-year-old was jailed for supplying crack cocaine, being concerned in the supply of heroin, possession with intent to supply heroin and crack cocaine, and possession of pepper spray.

The sentence also includes separate offences dating back to July 2022 in the Greater Manchester Police force area; threatening a person with a bladed article, possession with intent to supply heroin and cocaine, and possession of cannabis.

Rebaz Mohammed appeared at Chester Crown Court on Friday 22 August where he was handed the sentence after being found guilty of numerous drugs offences (Nub News).

The Cheshire Police investigation began when a telephone number was identified as being involved in the supply of class A drugs in the Crewe area since November 2024.

The number would send out flare messages to customers informing them of drugs for sale, and users would then place orders via text messages or telephone calls.

This was attributed to the CJ County Line Group, which was operating in Crewe.

On Wednesday 5 March 2025, officers executed a warrant at an address in Derrington Avenue following enquiries into this crime group.

Mohammed was located inside the address and was subsequently arrested. Multiple mobile phones were seized, along with a large amount of cash, plus pepper spray. Crack cocaine was seized to a total street value of £1,240, and heroin to the value of £530.

Mohammed was later charged with the offences and was found guilty following a trial.

Sergeant Kevin Williams said: "I welcome the lengthy custodial sentence handed to Mohammed which is a culmination of the hard work of our officers in investigating the supply of illegal drugs in Crewe.

The Cheshire Police investigation began when a telephone number was identified as being involved in the supply of class A drugs in the Crewe area since November 2024 (Cheshire Police).

"We executed the warrant on the back of intelligence we had gathered regarding drug dealing in the town, which led to a significant amount of drugs being taken off the streets.

"Mohammed tried to deny the offences, but he clearly didn't think about the strength of the evidence stacked against him and the jury saw through his lies.

"While Mohammed now has plenty of time in custody to think about his actions, our fight against illegal drugs and those who supply them continues.

"Intelligence supplied by members of the public is crucial to this fight and I urge anyone with any information about suspected drug-related activity in their community to get in touch."
