Two men have been jailed for four years each after police seized heroin worth £135,000 in Dundee.

David Lynn, 49, was found with almost a kilo of the Class A drug, with a potential value of £98,000, after officers stopped his car on the A90 at Dundee as he ferried heroin to the city.

A separate raid by police on the same day at a house on Kingsway East, Dundee, caught Paul Crerar, 46, with a quantity of heroin that had the potential street value of £37,000.

Lynn, who told police he was of no fixed abode, pled guilty to being concerned in the supply of the drug on the same date on the A90 near Gourdie Croft.

Unemployed Crerar, who has previously been jailed for drugs offending, admitted being concerned in the supply of heroin on October 7 last year at Kingsway East and elsewhere.

Judge Lady Scott told Lynn he had been transporting heroin with "a significant street value" from Glasgow to Dundee.

Advocate depute Stewart Ronnie told the High Court in Edinburgh that when Lynn was stopped and asked about drugs he had indicated he had received a bag that morning.

Defence solicitor advocate Rhonda Anderson, for Lynn, said: "He genuinely regrets his involvement."

She added he had expressed "disgust" at his behaviour.

Jonathan Crowe, counsel for Crerar, said he had first taken drugs while at school and went on to smoke heroin.

He said a series of tragic incidents in his life had led to him returning to use the drug and he had got into debt. He added Crerar had been "put upon" to look after the heroin he was caught with.
