Hamza Zafar jailed for 8 years. Used teens to sell Class A drugs in Kingston and threatened with a fake gun.
Zafar’s birthday is July 26, 1998. Police said he used two teens to sell drugs. They were only 15 and 17 years old, selling crack cocaine and heroin in Kingston.
He threatened a student with a fake gun. Police searched a teen’s home in October 2023 and found lots of crack and heroin and also located a phone for drug deals. Officers stopped the other teen later that month. He had over fifty deals of crack and heroin.
Police found a link and connected Zafar to both teens. Phone data revealed his influence, showing he was controlling them by directing their actions.
Zafar threatened a young child, saying he’d put an Airtag on them. He tried to be an adult for a 13-year-old. The teen had a knuckleduster. Zafar threatened the student in November 2023 with a fake gun.
Police arrested Zafar in May 2024. He faced many charges and denied them all, but he was found guilty in court. He also got a 12-year prevention order.
