Cannabis plantation with hundreds of plants in Märkisch-Oderland

At the cannabis plantation, the police said they found a large amount of cannabis in addition to the plants. Cannabis and four-digit amounts of money were also found and seized at the other two addresses. The plants were also confiscated and some of them had already been chopped up, a police spokesman said.

The suspicion that two people violated the consumer cannabis law triggered the investigation. The suspects are a 47-year-old and a 49-year-old. The police found one of the suspects during the searches, she said. He was processed for identification and then released.

The criminal investigation department of the East Police Department has taken over the investigation. On Tuesday, the police seized further evidence, it was said.
