CANNABIS with an estimated street value of £100,000 has been recovered by Ammanford police.
Officers searched a home in Garnant on Wednesday, July 21, where 100 plants were discovered to be growing in the front room and two bedrooms.
Given the number and maturity of some of the plants, officers estimate the quantity of cannabis growing to be worth around £100,000.
Sergeant Gemma Davies said: “This was a significant seizure of cannabis plants, which were growing in a sophisticated set-up across three rooms.
“Our investigation is ongoing into who is responsible, as there was nobody present at the time of the warrant, and we are carrying out all possible lines of enquiry to identify a suspect.
