A CONVICTED drug dealer is a wanted man after failing to appear at court for sentencing because he did not have enough transport money.
Nathan Montford, 23, of Melford Road, Walthamstow, was due at Portsmouth Crown Court on December 22, after admitting drugs and prohibited weapon charges.
A warrant has been issued for his arrest and his next hearing is expected to be January 5.
The court said the reason he did not attend was because of a "lack of funds".
Following his arrest in Portsmouth on May 6, Montford pleaded guilty to two charges of possessing a class A drug with intent to supply and one of possessing a prohibited weapon.
