A huge 530 cannabis plant farm worth £525,000 was found in a Nottinghamshire house. Police attended the property in Upton, near Newark at around 8.40am on December 28 after receiving reports of drug activity in the area.
A haul of around 530 cannabis plants was discovered by officers during a search of the house. The drugs, which are valued at around £525,000, were growing in seven rooms across the house, powered by a dangerous bypass of the property's electrics.
All the plants were seized and will now be destroyed following the warrant, which was led by the Newark and Sherwood Operation Reacher team. Officers from the drug support team and Rushcliffe Operation Reacher team also assisted to help make the property safe and to dismantle the plants.
