Two charged over A90 cannabis find

Cannabis worth £60,000 has been recovered after a car was stopped on the A90 near Fordoun.

The recovery was made on Friday, 8th February, and a 41 year old man and a 22 year old woman have been charged as a result.

They are anticipated to appear at Aberdeen Sheriff Court today, Monday, 11 February.

Detective Sergeant Calum Bell said: “We are committed to targeting the illegal supply of drugs in the North East. This latest recovery has removed a significant amount of drugs from communities.

“Anyone with information about the illegal supply of drugs or associated antisocial behaviour is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101. All intelligence we receive, no matter how insignificant it may seem, helps us to build a bigger picture which enables us undertake intelligence led operations and further disrupt the supply of drugs."
