Police bust cannabis operation in national park

A major drug growing operation has been discovered inside a national park in Victoria's north-west.

 

Police say a complex piping system that stretched for several kilometres was used to grow marijuana crops inside the Hattah-Kulkyne National Park, between Ouyen and Mildura.

 

The pipes were traced back to a nearby property, where police say large quantities of processed cannabis and cash were found buried.

 

A man is being interviewed about the find, but no charges have been laid.

 

Sergeant Mark Edwards says the pipes were traced back to a nearby property.

 

"We've executed a drug search warrant on the property," he said.

 

"We've uncovered a number of containers that've been buried into the ground containing large amounts of processed cannabis of a high quality, and quantities of cash that've also been buried in the ground, also a number of firearms."
