Man arrested after £250k cannabis haul seized in Lanarkshire

A man has been arrested following a drugs raid in Lanarkshire.

Officers seized cannabis plants with a street value of £250,000 at a property in Wishaw on Monday.

Acting on a tip-off, officers from Lanarkshire Proactive Crime Team, searched an address under warrant and arrested a 25-year-old man.

He was charged in connection with the recovery and was expected to appear at Hamilton Sheriff Court on Tuesday.

Sergeant Gillian Willows from Police Scotland’s Serious and Organised Crime Unit said: “We are committed to targeting the illegal supply of drugs in our communities and any information we receive will be taken seriously and acted upon.

"We rely on members of the public to provide us with information which we can act on.

"We would encourage anyone with information about suspicious activity to contact Police Scotland on 101 or if you wish to remain anonymous, to call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111."
