Man quizzed after cannabis factory uncovered in County Tyrone

About 100 cannabis plants and cultivation apparatus was found in a search of a flat at Drumcoo Green. The man was arrested on suspicion of cultivating cannabis and he remains in custody this morning. A PSNI spokesperson said: "Police are committed to making Northern Ireland a hostile environment for those in our community who are involved in the drugs trade and anyone involved in the drugs trade, or anyone tempted to become involved should be under no illusion - we will seek to identify them, arrest them and place them before the courts. "Police continue to encourage members of the public with concerns about drugs or drug dealing to get in touch and enable us to investigate. The number to call is 101. "Alternatively, information can also be passed anonymously to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, which is 100% anonymous and gives people the power to speak up and stop crime." --- A message from the Editor: Thank you for reading this story on our website.
