Ahmed, of Leeds Road, Thornbury, Bradford, pleaded guilty to four counts of possessing a class A drug with intent to supply, two counts of possessing a class B drug with intent to supply and concealing criminal property.

Mr Ahmed said his client had been planning to get married but the relationship with his partner is likely to be over as a result of the convictions.
Sentencing, the Recorder of Leeds, Judge Guy Kearl QC said: "What you were doing was providing a safe location for the drugs.
"It is obvious that it was a well paid role, as evidenced by the clothing found in your apartment."
