When it comes to drugs offences there were 2,322 in the district in 2022. There were also 621 incidents of possession of weapons.

One recent example from the courts is Abdullah Swaid, who in January 2022, at the age of 18, got into a dispute over a drug deal and attacked a man with a machete.

Earlier this week he was sentenced to three years and nine months in a young offender institution for his actions.

Bradford Crown Court heard that his victim questioned both the quantity and quality of the Class A drugs he was handed, leading to Swaid pulling a machete out of his car and launching an attack.

The man suffered two injuries to his left arm, one described to the court as a “significant wound”.

Swaid pleaded guilty to unlawful and malicious wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, as well as possession with intent to supply class A drugs.
