A man has been charged after police seized nearly £700,000 worth of cannabis in Highlands.
Officers carried out a raid at a property in the Spean Bridge area of Inverness at around 11.20am on Saturday.
A quantity of cannabis plants, worth an estimated £700,000 were recovered from the scene.
The 34-year-old man was arrested and charged in connection with the incident and appeared Inverness Sheriff Court on Monday.
Detective sergeant Joe Newson said: “This is a significant cannabis cultivation and its recovery is another step towards removing drugs from our community.
“We are committed to tackling the supply of illegal substances, which can have a devastating impact on people’s lives and bring misery to the local area.
“Information provided by the public is vital to help us do this. I would ask anyone who witnesses suspicious behaviour around buildings that aren’t frequently occupied or has any concerns about drug production in their area, to report it to us.”
