AN OLDHAM man was among five men jailed for drug offences in North Manchester.

Imran Sabhane (28) of Windsor Road, Oldham, was sentenced to two years and eight months in prison for possession of the class B drug cannabis, with intent to supply.

Police discovered 32 kilograms of cannabis, with an estimated street value of more than £310,000 at a house in Woodlands Road, Cheetham Hill.

Chris Manning, Rafaquet Sadiq, Mohammed Bhutta and Ahmed Hadi were also sentenced at Manchester Crown Court, Crown Square, on Friday for drug offences.

Police received complaints of street dealing from summer 2012, often in broad daylight. They raided the Cheetham Hill house last June.
