A substantial cannabis grow was found during a police search at an address in Buxton earlier this week.
Officers executed a warrant at a commercial address in Staden Lane, at 12.30pm on Monday 2 September.
More than 800 cannabis plants were found in the address and seized by officers.
Two men were arrested on suspicion of cannabis production and were charged and remanded to appear at Stockport Magistrates Court this morning (Wednesday 4 September).
Dorjan Kaca, 30, and Ledjan Papajani, 39, both of no fixed address were further remanded into prison custody and are next due to appear at Manchester Crown Court (Minshull Street) on 9 October.
Sergeant Patrick Haley, of the Buxton Safer Neighbourhood Policing Team, said: “We’d like to reiterate our thanks to the local community for their continued support in helping us to locate and dismantle large cannabis grows such as this.
“Anyone with concerns or information about drug misuse is urged to report it to us.”
Some of the signs that cannabis is being grown, which you may be able to spot, include:
Strange smells and sounds.
Frequent and varied visitors to a property, often at unusual times.
Gardening equipment being taken into a building or property, such as plant pots, fertiliser, fans and industrial lighting.
Windows are sealed and covered, or the curtains are permanently closed.
Heat from an adjoining property.
