A drug dealer caught by police 223 miles from his home in Crewe tried to convince officers he was on holiday.
Adrain Badea claimed he made the journey to Tunbridge Wells to sightsee towns across the south east of England, however a search revealed he was actually operating as a dealer for an organised crime group.
Badea’s black BMW was stopped at the Fountains Retail park on 23 March, he told officers his plan for his holiday, but said he had no accommodation and slept in his car.
He was detained for a search and six bags of cocaine were seized from his shoe. Cannabis and £130 in cash were also recovered.
Badea, 27, of Hankins Heys Lane, Crewe was charged with possessing cocaine with intent to supply, possessing cannabis, and driving without insurance.
He pleaded guilty and on 14 January was sentenced at Maidstone Crown Court to two years and four months’ imprisonment.

i can tell it was a stupid woman officer i bet she wouldnt dare detain me.
Another foreigner as usual
That switch from "I go all around sea cities"
To
"Cocaine and weed" cracked me up
I would have said, " i can travel where i like and i dont have to answer to you, go do your job helping the public"
Should earn immediate deportation
He's Albanian drug dealer
You got green eyes or brown?;
Hail a cab, eat 12 secret dips and Park out front of the laundry mat .
You'll be amune to all charges.
That you Caspar?🌴 🥸❣️
Manual e9x chassis rip
He came to walk in the Pantiles
What drugs
Should of said Somalia in an accent then he would of walked !
Copper didn’t believe him soon as he said he was a tourist in Crewe 😂
i say ole chap what what
What an idiot… 😂 He just should have replied " I dont answer questions officer " ! 😊
Most easily fixable but critical mistake drug dealers make: dressing and driving like a drug dealer. Get an old Volvo V70 and a wax jacket and you could run heroin up and down the country if you really wanted to.
Scumbag
Dont get high on your own supply… he missed that one, dudes flying highhhhhh 😅😂😂
I have 4 illegals living opportunities me, driving with no licenses and smoking and dealing drugs every day. They live next door to a police station. Not a care in the world. Must only be interested in the white British elderly crimes of sending emails to MPs.
The system is flawed. Corrupted. Capitalism doesn’t work for the majority and creates endless strings of issues for us all. And yet we bow down and accept it.
This right here. This man selling illegal drugs. Is a result of that corrupted system. A system that allows pharmaceutical companies to sell the most addictive substances legally. While things that grow in the ground and have massive health benefits. Is illegal.
The system is a joke and it’s THE SYSTEM that needs to change. Not the people.
Least tourist looking fella ever. Clapped out BMW stands out at least drive a blend in car. My man folded fast on her asking what he has. He will get a telling off and a house for this crime. If your gonna drive drugs don't drive a drug dealers usual car
Deport Deport Deport 🐀🐀🐀
Shame.. why cant a drugdealer be also a tourist?
Good Crewe accent
What part of Albania is Crewe 😂
He will probably get a new house for this
Witever a want and its none of your buisness tbh ftp
I'll never answer the police when they ask me why I'm in a particular area… none of their business
Visiting my day 1 customers 😀 😅
Black 🖤 and white 🤍 green 💚 available
Well.. he'll be deported, not charged, then he'll be brought back. Some politicians in the EU have figured out the unlimited money method, cause they just lobby against any policies affecting illegal migration, or they get the judges to stop anyone trying to stop the illegal migration. I gotta become a politician in Europe.
Let me guess, he's Albanian 😂
HELLO STEVEN HOLINS NO HIT DAMIAN KING
Ill be damned if im gonna go on charhes with a lady cop, meanwhile the rp gangs go free. Uk is fucked
Well done to the police
