Tahira Nelson-Warburton, from Wandsworth, was sentenced to five years in prison after pleading guilty to possession of a firearm and ammunition with intent to cause fear or violence. Police searching her home in Strathdon Drive discovered a rucksack in her wardrobe which contained, wrapped in clothing, a shotgun and ammunition. Officers searched the bedroom further and found a makeup bag in a chest of drawers which contained more ammunition. They also found a large amount of cash.
