About $4.1 million worth of cannabis has been seized in police raids in northern NSW this week.Police said on Saturday the raids in the Coffs/Clarence Local Area Command (LAC) take their total haul in the Strike Force Unwin cannabis eradication program to $21.7 million.

 

Strike Force Unwin comprises detectives from the Drug Squads Cannabis Team, the NSW Police Air Wing, Dog Squad and Coffs/Clarence LAC.

 

This latest raids from Monday to Friday targeted areas including Repton, Boambee, Korora, Sandon District, Woombah, Ashby, Tyndle, Billys Creek and Dorrigo.

 

Police seized 2057 plants, up to 3m high.

 

They plan more raids in coming months.

 

Drug Squad Commander Detective Superintendent Nick Bingham warned drug cultivators they wouldn't know where or when police would strike.

 

"Our aim is to detect and destroy cannabis crops across the state," he said in a statement.

 

"Whether it's a semi-rural crop or on a steep mountainside in a remote part of the state, there's a very high chance police will find it."

 

 

 

 

I fail to see how this is in the public interest? All it does is help keep prices high for organised crime gangs to profit from. Money they use to finance the importing of truly addictive and dangerous drugs into Australia like heroin.

 

I read this article to say $21.7 million of crime gang markets protected by Nick Bingham and the NSW Police.

 

This work only benefits organised crime gangs is the reality, it is not for the greater good of the community. A thick skin shouldn't = a thick head as well? Wake up and see the damage you are really doing to the comunity please? For the greater good of the community.

Well said MM.

On a sarcastic note it's nice to see that the reefer madness brainwashing hasn't worn off, a little top up via our easily manipulated media every now and again keeps it strong, can't have people thinking for themselves now can we??
