UK: Drug Factory Found

Sussex Express, LewesToday.com

Thursday 23 Mar 2006

---
AN elaborate cannabis 'factory' that may have links to a much larger
drug production operation along the coast, has been uncovered in Newhaven.

Housed within a residential property in Meeching Road was a hydroponics
growing facility so sophisticated a police source described it as, 'one
of the most impressive growing operations we have ever seen'.

Police found more than 350 large plants growing in the house with a
street value of several thousand pounds.

Detective Constable Mike Baldwin, of Newhaven CID, said: 'The cannabis
factory found at the property is an elaborate set up and extremely well
designed.

'This find is considered to be significant step forward in reducing drug
supply and although cannabis was reclassified to a class C drug,
producing and supplying cannabis remains a serious offence and can mean
up to 14 years imprisonment and a fine.'
