Police have shut down a cannabis factory discovered in a Nottinghamshire home. On Monday, May 8, Nottinghamshire Police were called to a house in Beech Avenue, Mapperley at around 2.10pm after receiving reports that a cannabis farm had been found inside.
Officers carried out a search at the address and found around 100 cannabis plants growing in the loft and one of the upstairs bedrooms. Further searches identified that electricity had been bypassed to power the illicit grow.
All of the drugs were seized and the electrical equipment was dismantled and put beyond use. Chief Inspector Arnie Ahmed, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “Cannabis grows like this one are a blight on society and cause nothing but trouble to communities.
