Adil Ditta, 23, faces more jail if he fails to repay £11,370 of criminal earnings within three months after drug dealing conviction.
A court said Ditta made £24,922 from crime. He has £11,370 available now. The court wants Ditta to pay £11,370 within three months. If he fails, he will serve six months more.
Ditta got eight years in prison last year. He admitted to dealing Class A drugs and ran away after a police raid. It involved £3.5 million of cocaine and happened in Bradford on October 5, 2023.
Police saw cocaine move between vehicles at Low Moor. Ditta sped off in a Golf car. The conditions made driving hard that night, and his driving was dangerous, forcing other drivers to swerve.
Ditta ran red lights during the chase. He drove fast over pedestrian crossings and even drove the wrong way at a roundabout. He drove 91 mph before police lost him.
The police found the abandoned Golf later and seized 70 packages of cocaine in it. Experts valued the drugs highly. The wholesale value was about £1 million, and the street value was about £3.5 million.
Ditta rented the car used in the crime. His fingerprints linked him to it, and he left the UK for Pakistan soon after. He came back in January.
Police arrested Ditta on March 21, 2024, at his address in Nelson. They seized £1,000 in cash there. He admitted to drug dealing and dangerous driving.
Dominic Lowe drove the other car and received eight years in jail too. His crime was a similar drug offense. He was sentenced in December 2023.
