Jailed drug dealer with cocaine up his bottom held on for thirteen days, while police waited

A drug dealer who tried to hide a stash of cocaine up his bottom has been jailed after police had to wait thirteen days for the evidence to drop.

Officers had to obtain three extensions from Lancashire Magistrates as they waited patiently for Anthony Mason to 'reveal' the drugs they felt sure he was hiding. Mason was stopped by cops in Galgate, Lancaster on April 1, after police spotted him acting suspiciously.



The 32-year-old of Chalice Way, Liverpool, initially denied he was storing an illegal haul.

When the drugs finally did make an appearance a presumably red-faced but ultimately relieved Mason admitted possessing cocaine and heroin with intent to supply. He was jailed for five years at Preston Crown Court.
