Drugs waste is left dumped in country lane
THE remains of cannabis cultivation have been found dumped in dozens of bags in a country lane outside Cardiff.
A large number of bags have been located by police in the Wenvoe area in the Vale of Glamorgan.
Images show dozens of bags – mostly black bin bags but others that are more distinctive – dumped on a footpath, and police said much of the content inside suggested it came from cannabis cultivation.
Police have also said fly-tipping in the area is becoming a more common occurrence and an investigation is under way to trace those who dumped the waste in this latest incident.
A spokesman for South Wales Police said: “We are investigating a case of fly-tipping whereby much of the contents of the bags provide evidence of cannabis cultivation.
“The rubbish was located in Wenvoe, and fly-tipping in this area is getting more regular.
“We ask that if anyone recognises them or any property they may have come from, to report it to us.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact South Wales Police online or by calling 101.
