A cannabis factory was found in a house after two men acting suspiciously attracted the attention of police.
On Tuesday, August 25, South Wales Police officers from the Operation Sceptre Team spotted two men leaving the rear garden of a house during a patrol in Cathays, Cardiff.
The men were acting suspiciously and attracted the attention of the officers who investigated further.
On further enquiry, a cannabis factory was found inside the property and three people were arrested for cannabis cultivation.
Heat lamps, fans and ventilation equipment were found inside the house and 450 cannabis plants were found by officers.
In June, a cannabis factory worth £190,000 was discovered in a Cardiff home. Xhevdet Dragjoshi, 26, ran a cannabis production operation from the property before he was arrested.
Dragjoshi was sentenced to three years and four months imprisonment and was told he would likely be deported to Albania after serving half of his sentence.
