Mazarron marihuana growers arrested

A Mazarron couple have been arrested for growing marihuana.

Police discovered over 150 plants and dismantled a sophisticated marihuana cultivation and production plant at their home in the centre of Mazarron.

The property had generated suspicion by the constant movement of people, some of them known for their drug addiction.

Being a terraced house, those arrested were using insulation systems and soundproofing in the room used for cultivation, to prevent smells and noise from escaping.

Fifty bags of cocaine ready for distribution were found in the property, as well as €500 in cash.
