KNOX: Drug seizure at Bayswater


Police have seized approximately $1.5 million worth of cannabis from an industrial area in Melbourne’s eastern suburbs as part of an ongoing investigation into commercial drug trafficking.
Detectives from Croydon Divisional Response Unit executed two search warrants at two factory sites in the Bayswater area on Thursday (June 12).
Upon entering the adjoining factories, detectives uncovered two large-scale hydroponic cannabis set-ups.
More than 1300 cannabis plants were seized, weighing just over 1000 kilograms (a tonne).
No arrests have been made, and the investigation remains ongoing.
Anyone with information about drug trafficking is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or via www.crimestoppersvic.com.au
