A DRUG dealer who made more than £120,000 selling crack cocaine will have to hand over just over £1.

Ellis Seivwright, 21, of Glebe Street, Newport, was jailed earlier this year for trafficking on the streets of the city.

The third strike drug dealer, who was locked up for five-and-a-half years, was back in court to face a Proceeds of Crime Act (POCA) hearing.

Merthyr Tydfil Crown Court heard how Seivwright made £120,528.28 but has no assets to recover.

Newport Crown Court was told how he had profited by £166,741.78 from drugs and was also ordered to pay a nominal sum of £1.

Uddin was jailed for two years and six months.
