Man held and 800 cannabis plants seized from an indoor grow in Posadas
The Guardia Civil arrested a 35-year-old man in Posadas, Córdoba province, and dismantled an indoor cannabis plantation of 800 plants in an advanced stage of flowering on the upper floor of his home. The police statement, published by local outlets, says a strong smell led officers to the house; they also found 20 grams of crack cocaine, and the man was handed to the courts.
The Guardia Civil, Spain’s military-status police force, arrested a 35-year-old
resident of Posadas, an Andalusian town in the province of Córdoba, on suspicion
of drug trafficking and of cultivating and processing drugs.[1]Officers
seized 800 cannabis plants in an advanced stage of flowering and growth and
dismantled the indoor plantation.[1]
During a public-security patrol near the town, officers noticed a strong smell
of marijuana coming from a house where a compressor-like noise was heard, and
the working refrigeration confirmed their suspicion of an indoor grow.[2]The
grower was tracked down as the occupant of the apparently empty house, and a
search of the house found the plantation and a bag of 20 grams of crack cocaine
prepared for sale.[2]
The plantation sat on the upper floor behind a door, with ventilation and air
conditioning, eleven 720-watt LED lamps and two large carbon filters to suppress
the smell.[2]The plants were weeks away from finishing flowering, when they
would have been pulled up and dried for sale, the Guardia Civil said.[1]The
man was placed at the disposal of the courts together with the plants and the
cocaine; the reports name no charge, plea or court outcome.[1]
