Four people have been arrested after police discovered a cannabis factory in County Londonderry.
PSNI officers made the discovery during a planned search of a property in the Waterside area of Derry on Thursday.
Three men aged 37, 39 and 60 and a woman aged 52 have been arrested on suspicion of drug-related offences and are currently in custody.
PSNI Inspector Simon Gurney said: “Cannabis factories such as this one often have links to serious criminality.
“By dismantling this extensive factory, we have helped to stop unlawful activity in its tracks.
“We will continue to work tirelessly to search for and seize drugs, investigate and arrest those involved in drug supply and remove drugs from our streets.
“Support from the public is crucial and, with your help, we can focus our efforts on identifying those who make their living and cause so much misery and harm by bringing drugs to our streets and neighbourhoods. Together we can help protect those you care about.”
