This is the huge haul of cannabis found after police raided a house in a leafy suburb of Cardiff.
Officers smashed their way into the semi-detached property in Manor Way, Whitchurch, after an electricity firm noticed something suspicious was going on. As well as finding more than 300 cannabis plants, neighbourhood officers discovered sophisticated growing equipment in the house — which is on a main route into Cardiff.
A South Wales Police spokesperson said the Class B drug farm was discovered after energy supplier E.ON noticed suspicious activity at the property. Officers have dismantled the operation.
