News Shopper

Thursday 31 May 2007

---
A 20-YEAR-OLD man has been sentenced to 20 weeks imprisonment after
being charged with producing £100,000 worth of cannabis.

A semi-detached house in Broad Walk, Kidbrooke, was raided by police on
May 29.

Police uncovered 400 to 600 cannabis plants which were being used to
produce the drug.

Lee Thanh Nyugen was arrested at the house and interviewed in connection
with the cultivation of cannabis and stealing electricity.

Greenwich safer neighbourhood officers raided the address at 7am.

Nyugen, of no fixed abode, was charged with producing cannabis and
pleaded guilty at Woolwich Magistrates' Court in Market Street,
Woolwich, last Wednesday.

Sergeant Alfred Peacock, of the Kidbrooke and Hornfair safer
neighbourhood team, said: "I want to emphasise that these sort of
operations are linked with serious and organised crime networks.

"We do not want them and the associated crime they bring to the
neighbourhood."
