UK: Plants haul from suspected cannabis factory

Derbyshire Times

Wednesday 30 Jan 2008

---
Police have seized what they believe to be 300 cannabis plants after a
drugs raid at a former Chinese take-away.

Officers smashed their way into the disused building — formerly Ming's
Kitchen — on Old Hall Road, Brampton,

on Tuesday morning and discovered a suspected cannabis factory.
The plants were found in five rooms in the property along with equipment
such as lights and heaters.

Det Sgt Richard Kubon said: "This appears to be quite a sophisticated
set-up with more than 300 plants."

Police have traced the owners of the building, which was being rented
out, and have launched a search for the occupants.

Forensic experts are due to examine the plants which police believe were
being grown to produce the class C drug in quantities that could have
had a street value of tens of thousands of pounds.

Det Sgt Kubon added: "We're working to trace the occupants of the
premises and would ask for anyone with information which might help
track them to contact us."
