Teenager arrested after cannabis farm worth half a million pounds uncovered in Govan

A teenager has been arrested after a cannabis cultivation worth half a million pound was discovered in Govan.

Officers searched an industrial estate on Fairley Street on Tuesday and uncovered the cannabis farm.

The plants recovered have an estimated street value of £500,000.

A 19-year-old was arrested and charged in connection with the recovery.

The teen was expected to appear at Glasgow Sheriff Court today.

A report will be sent to the Procurator Fiscal.

Inspector Scott Simpson at Govan Police Station said: “We will act on information and concerns that we receive from people living in the local community about drugs supply and continue to disrupt those involved in the supply of drugs.

“I would urge anyone with information about drugs in their local area to contact their local police office via telephone number 101, or alternatively Crimestoppers can be contacted on 0800 555 111, where anonymity can be maintained.”
