Detective Sergeant Nicky Beattie said: "This substantial recovery shows our commitment to disrupting drug activity and supply in our local communities.

"This seizure ensures that £2.3 million worth of drugs will not be distributed on our streets.

"Drugs cause real devastation to people's lives and the wider community. The public can be assured that targeting drugs and tackling those involved in criminality remains a priority."
