Two men have been arrested and charged for cannabis cultivation following two raids on cannabis farms in Warwick on the morning of Tuesday 5 September.

The first of the two addresses raided was on Sycamore Grove, where 48 near-mature plants were discovered within the property after executing a warrant.

Following this raid, Tonin Pashollari (32 of no fixed abode) was arrested and charged with production of cannabis and abstracting electricity.

The second was on Pattens Road, where an additional 45 plants were discovered following a Section 17 entry and search of the address. These 45 plants were caught in the early stages of growth.

After this, Kledi Muca (20 of no fixed abode) was arrested and charged for production of cannabis.

Both men were charged in Coventry Magistrates Court today (6 September) and are due to appear in Warwick Crown Court on 5 October.

PC Ben Brewster said “We’ve been able to seize these drugs thanks to information provided by the community, to whom we would like to say a huge thank you.

“These reports are from people sick of their neighbourhoods being used to produce cannabis with no respect for their wellbeing.”
