TWO people have been arrested after police discovered a cannabis farm in Dukinfield.
The discovery on Wednesday evening (September 11) was made by officers in the loft of a property.
They found two males, who were arrested on suspicion of drug cultivation and taken to custody for questioning.
Greater Manchester Police say the cannabis plants and equipment have been seized and destroyed, but have not revealed the exact location of the incident.
It’s the latest in a string of recent cannabis farm discoveries across the borough.
A spokesperson for GMP’s Tameside team said: “As many know from recent incidents within Tameside, this type of farm set-up has the potential to cause serious fires, due to the volume of electrical equipment involved.
“We urge anyone with information about cannabis farms within Tameside to contact their local neighbourhood policing team via 101, online or Crimestoppers if you wish to remain anonymous.”
