Police and regulators have uncovered an illicit drug manufacturing site at a farm near Sleaford, Lincolnshire, in what authorities have described as a significant disruption to an organised crime network producing unregulated weight‑loss medicines.
The agricultural building, previously appearing to be an unremarkable farm structure, was found to contain nearly 2,000 doses of illegal 'skinny jabs', pharmaceutical ingredients, manufacturing apparatus, and commercial vehicles, police said. A residential address in Grantham was also searched as part of the operation, supported by trading standards and immigration enforcement.
