More than 15 kilos of cannabis, thought to be worth £150,000, has been found in a disused bakery in Oldham. Police raided the former Croda Food Services unit on Falcon Street, just after 5pm yesterday.
Officers discovered 15.5 kilos of cannabis bush concealed in vacuum packed bags within the lock-up.
The plants have now been recovered for forensic analysis and inquiries are continuing to establish who was behind the operation.
This is yet another massive find for police in Oldham but more importantly for the people who live in this area who time and time again have told us how fed up they are with drug dealing on their doorstep.
This bakery looks as if it was being used as a storage and distribution centre for a huge amount of cannabis bush and so to have seized such a large amount of drugs means we have effectively stopped this cannabis from getting onto our streets where it can cause untold harm.”
