A drug dealing drill artist has been sent back to prison after bringing a revolver to a meeting with the Probation Service.
Essex Police found the converted firearm inside a coat taken by Noble Nwokocha, 24, to offices in Laindon, near Basildon, in October 2025.
The rapper, known as Drilla, a member of north London drill group 3×3, was on licence from prison having been convicted of supplying heroin and cocaine in 2023.
A judge at Southend Crown Court sent him back to jail for four years and eight months in August after he admitted holding the gun.
Nwokocha fronted a drill music video with lyrics glorifying firearms while on licence, detectives found.
“The reality that emerged through these proceedings was very different and far from glamourous,” said Det Sgt Jon Kemp.
