The 33-year-old American was earlier sentenced to a three-and-a-half-years in New York for his role in a check fraud conspiracy. He will now serve the mandatory five-year term on top of the old one.
US Drug Enforcement Administration agents said Montgomery sold 111 grams of heroin to an undercover informant for about 8,500 dollars, with four meetings between Montgomery and the informant videotaped by the federal authorities.
Montgomery set a world 100m record of 9.78 seconds in Paris in 2002. It was stricken down from the books in 2005 after he was found guilty in a doping scandal.
