Drugs with an estimated street value of £15,000, more than £4,000 cash and 11 mobile phones were seized.

Three men, Samson Danso, 23, and Jedaiah Muikira, 21, both of Leyburn Gardens, Croydon, and William Cranford, 20, of Terminus Road, Littlehampton, appeared in custody at Crawley Magistrates Court on Thursday 7 July.

Cranford and Danson were also charged with possessing with intent to supply crack cocaine and heroin.

Muikira was also charged with possession with intent to supply cannabis.

Danson was also charged with money laundering

All three were remanded in custody to appear at Lewes Crown Court on August 4.

A 31-year-old man arrested in Littlehampton on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of Class A drugs was released under investigation.

Detective Constable Jon Woolley of the West Sussex Community Investigation Team said:

"This is another example of the way we are successfully working with colleagues from the Met to disrupt those suspected of seeking to distribute dangerous drugs in our communities."
