Telford man jailed for County Lines crack dealing

A Telford man who travelled to Llandudno as part of a County Lines drug supply network has been jailed.

Prince Asareb Boakye (19), from Donnington pleaded guilty to being concerned in the supply of heroin, crack cocaine and cannabis between 2023 and 2025, as well as a separate charge of possession of Cannabis.

He was also found guilty on 16th January of threatening with a knife and false imprisonment after a trial at Mold Crown Court. Boakye was acquitted of a separate  sexual offence.

On Friday, he was jailed for six and a half years, and made the subject of a 10 year restraining order.

Speaking after sentencing, Detective Constable Katie Doyle said: “Prince Boakye was a member of an Organised Crime Group who targeted and exploited a man in the Conwy area. As a result of his actions, Prince Boakye will now spend a significant period of his young adult life in custody.

“North Wales Police will continue to target violent offenders and protect communities from the harm they cause and the devastation they bring, and I welcome today’s sentencing.“
