£1m worth of drugs seized in Midlothian village
Two men have been charged in connection with the find on Tuesday
Police have charged two men on suspicion of producing and supplying diazepam at a property in Danderhall.
Officers seized 900,000 tablets and a pill press during a raid on Tuesday.
Others substances discovered are still being tested but police reckon it all has a street value of around £1 million.
Two men, aged 42 and 60, were arrested at the scene and have since been charged.
Both are due to appear at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Thursday.
Detective Chief Inspector Bryan Burns said: “Officers discovered a sophisticated criminal enterprise believed to have been producing vast amounts of illegal drugs with a significant quantity, and mechanisms to produce more, successfully seized.
“Our officers are removing drugs from communities right across Scotland day in, day out.
"In addition we will continue to do everything in our powers to strip those responsible of their criminal assets using the Proceeds of Crime Act, so they do not benefit from criminal activity.
“This operation underlines our commitment to the Serious Organised Crime Taskforce and the country’s Serious Organised Crime Strategy.”
