British Transport Police have arrested 13 people for drugs possession
during an operation at Portsmouth Harbour railway station.

BTP officers and passive drugs dogs were involved in the two-day
operation targeting people carrying illegal substances on the way to the
Isle of Wight Festival.

BTP South West Quadrant Inspector Mick Morriss said: "The carrying of
illegal substances on the railways is a serious offence.

"On the whole most of the commuters coming through the station and onto
the ferry to the festival were extremely well behaved and caused no
problems.

"Police stopped and searched 64 people during the operation and 13
people were arrested for drugs possession, which was mainly cannabis."
