Two men have been arrested and charged after a cannabis farm worth around £360,000 was discovered in Perth.

Responding to intelligence, police searched a property on Crieff Road on May 1.

The cannabis plants were seized and two men, aged 28 and 23, were arrested and charged with drugs offences.

They are both due to appear at Perth Sheriff Court on Monday.

Detective inspector Gary Lamb, of Police Scotland’s organised crime and counter terrorism unit, said: “Drugs cause misery in our communities and significant recoveries such as this highlights the work being carried out to tackle serious and organised crime.

“Those involved should be in no doubt that we work tirelessly day in and day out to tackle drug supply and bring those involved to justice.

“Information from the public is vital and we ask anyone with information or concerns about drugs to contact us.”
