Student Moses Walakira who set up a thriving drug-selling business in Basildon's Gloucester Park has been sent to a young offenders' institution for three years and nine months.

The dealings by the 18-year-old from east London came to an end when he sold heroin and crack cocaine to an under-cover policewoman.

At Basildon Crown Court he admitted 37 offences of supplying drugs.
