A police raid has uncovered a cannabis growing operation inside a house in north Canberra.

 

A search of the house in Knaggs Street in Page found about 40 mature cannabis plants and about 40 seedlings.

 

Police also seized about 30 kilograms of cannabis in vacuum sealed bags and specialised cultivation equipment.

 

Detectives say the electricity supply to the house had been diverted around the meter box.

 

The estimated value of the haul is around $200,000.

 

A 25-year-old man has been charged with drug cultivation and trafficking offences.

 

Police are urging anyone who has witnessed suspicious activity in the area to contact CrimeStoppers.

I fucking hate crime stoppers! I guarantee half the busts they make are from people ringing fucking crime stoppers. We all know they do no work themselves.
