Man arrested as £250,000 worth of cannabis seized in Aberdeenshire drugs bust

A MAN has been arrested after police found a large cannabis cultivation with an estimated street value of £250,000 in Aberdeenshire.

Officers executed a search warrant on the property in West Park Avenue, Inverbervie on Tuesday. 

A 29-year-old man was arrested and charged in connection with drugs offences.

He is due to appear at Aberdeen Sheriff Court on Wednesday.

Detective Constable Rob Graham from the North East CID Proactive Team said: “This was a very significant recovery and sends a clear message that drugs have absolutely no place in our community.

“Officers work hard on a daily basis to gather intelligence and disrupt this harmful activity and I would urge anyone with information about drugs in their area to contact Police Scotland via 101, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
