Two charged after Aberdeen drugs discovery

More than £1,000 of cannabis resin and cocaine have been recovered during an intelligence-led drugs operation in Aberdeen’s Guild Street.

Two men aged 34 and 38 have been charged in connection with the recovery which was made by CID proactive officers with assistance from a drugs detection dog following the arrival of a train from Glasgow.

The ‘street’ value is expected to increase following further enquiries.

The men will appear at Aberdeen Sheriff Court at a later date.

Detective Sergeant Bruce Buntain said: “We will continue to target our resources at the right times and in the right places to tackle the supply of drugs. In order to do this we rely on information from the public so I would continue to ask people to let us know their concerns by calling Police on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111 to remain anonymous."
