24 year old Tsvetomir Galabov was arrested following reports of a suspicious vehicle in the town last month.
PC Evans-Jones and PC Delaney identified the vehicle of interest and approached and spoke to its occupants.
Galabov, alongside an accomplice, could not provide any reasoning for them being in Epsom, nor could they confirm if they had any local friends or acquaintances.
Because of the previous reports from the public, partnered with the pair’s attitude and demeanour, officers executed a search of the vehicle and its occupants.
While searching the vehicle, a bag was identified which contained a large amount of cash, as well as a mobile phone that continued to ring.
Upon searching, Galabov was found to have multiple wraps of a suspected Class A drug within his boxer shorts.
Galabov was sentenced to 27 months in prison for possession with intent to supply Class A drugs.
He also received points on his licence for driving with no insurance.
A 23-year-old man was also released under police caution.
Investigating officer, PC Bethan Evans-Jones, said: “This outcome is a testament to our zero-tolerance approach to Class A drugs in Epsom. We hope this result serves as a warning that drug dealing is not tolerated in our community.”
“Thanks is also given to our local residents, whose reports of concerns allow us to direct our patrols and ensure areas of interest are always investigated.”
