The officers were on patrol when they received information that a man was using the property to store drugs.[1] A relative of the owner told the officers the house was rented and that a large movement of people had been noticed there.[1] Looking through a window into one of the bedrooms, the officers saw marijuana tablets and hashish packages spread across the floor between the curtain gaps, and smelled a strong drug odour at the door.[1] Officers broke the padlock to enter and seize the material.[1]

The hashish consisted of 51 sausages of Pakistani hashish weighing about 25 kg, plus 12 smaller pieces of the same substance weighing 675 g.[1] Officers also seized three marijuana tablets weighing about 1.6 kg and two packets of skunk weighing about 579 g.[1] The rest of the haul was 220 g of crumble, 215 THC pods, 22 packets of tobacco, 43 silicone jars, two precision scales, 82 lighters and a ballistic vest.[1]

The owner of the property, a 72-year-old man, was found nearby, confirmed he had rented the house to the suspect and followed the operation.[1] All the seized material was taken to the 2nd Regional Police Station, and no information on the whereabouts of the man who rented the house had been published.[1] The second outlet reported that the case is to be investigated to identify those responsible for the drugs.[2]
