Police bodycam captured the moment a pair of sleeping drugs dealers were placed in handcuffs while still in bed as officers executed a dawn raid.
An investigation into a drugs line operating between London and Leicestershire led officers to serve a warrant on a property in Leicester on 5 October 2022, where crack cocaine with a street value of over £10,000 was found.
Bodycam footage shows Miguel Figueiredo-Mendes and Jean Paul Ekombolo, both 28, being handcuffed after police breached the flat door.
Figueiredo-Mendes, of Orange Grove in Chigwell, was sentenced to six years and three months after pleading guilty to conspiracy to supply cocaine and heroin, while Ekombolo, of Mast Street in Barking, was sentenced to four years imprisonment after pleading guilty to conspiracy to supply cocaine.
