Cannabis grower in Mansfield house was offering to pay sex workers with drugs

An illegal immigrant was offering to pay sex workers with drugs and growing a valuable crop of cannabis after coming to the UK in a truck. Farmer's son Oetjon Agalliu had not rested on his laurels after arriving here illegally - which cost him a lot of cash.

Despite keeping out of trouble in his home country of Albania, Agalliu was found in a house in Bentinck Street, Mansfield, with 174 cannabis plants. The set up included fans, specialised lighting, fed from a diverted electricity supply.

The commercial grow of plants - found on December 14, 2021 - was estimated to be worth £146,000.
