A MAN has been jailed for drug supply offences after being found in possession of cocaine, MDMA, and cannabis, as well as other drugs, in Reading.

Piotr Florek, aged 27 and of Basingstoke Road, Reading, was sentenced to two years and nine months in prison at Reading Crown Court on Wednesday, February 11.

He pleaded guilty to a count each of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs, namely cocaine, and one count of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs, namely MDMA, as well as a count of possession with intent to supply Class B drugs, namely cannabis, on November 20, 2025.

It comes after a Section 18 premise search of Florek’s property in November last year, where officers recovered a substantial quantity of suspected controlled substances.

Officers found more than 1,650 MDMA tablets and 248 grams of crystal MDMA, nearly 400g of ketamine, just under 20g of cannabis, and 7g of cocaine.

Officers also found a quantity of a drug called 3-CMC, a synthetic psychoactive.
