A man has been charged after cannabis valued at £180,000 was found in a car on the A90.

‘Sigificant drug recovery’
Detective Inspector Robin Sim, from the organised crime and counter terrorism unit, said: “This is a significant recovery and demonstrates our ongoing commitment to seriously disrupt drug supply in the north-east.
“But we can’t tackle this criminal behaviour alone.
“The public continue to play a vital role in assisting investigations into drug crime and I would encourage anyone who has any concerns about drug-related activity, or has any information about those involved in drugs, to contact police on 101 or make an anonymous report to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
