A Rolex-wearing drug dealer who went by the name Albus Dumbledore has been jailed after he was caught by undercover police collecting cannabis in an Aldi bag.

Jacob Flavin, 29, used the Harry Potter-inspired handle to advertise and sell large quantities of the class B drug on encrypted messaging service Signal.

He sold varieties of cannabis known as 'Tropical', 'Gelato' and 'Banana' for between £2,800 and £3,100 a kilo, Manchester Crown Court heard.

Flavin was also caught advertising a kilo of 'super skunk' for £1,000 and shared a photo of the drug being held by a latex-gloved hand in November 2023.

The 29-year-old, who was part of a five-strong gang of drug dealers, was eventually snared by undercover police, Manchester Evening News has reported.
