Police Crack Down on Cannabis Farm
Detective Sergeant Vanessa Law warned locals about the wider dangers linked to such grows. She said, “Cultivations generally bring other criminal activity to a community, from local drug dealing to the abuse of vulnerable people used to grow the plants.”
Call the Cops if You Suspect Drug Crime
DS Law urged the public to stay vigilant. “If people suspect there is drug-related criminality taking place near them, we urge them to report it via the Kent Police website or by calling 999 if a crime is in progress, so our officers can take action.”
Kent Police remain on high alert as they crack down on drug farming hotspots, aiming to keep communities safe from the fallout of illegal grow operations.
