Two men charged following recovery of £72k drugs in Fraserburgh
Police in the North East can confirm that two men have been arrested and charged in connection with the recovery of Class A drugs with an estimated street value of around £72,000 from a property in the Fraserburgh area.
As part of an intelligence-led operation, officers executed a warrant in the Clinton Drive area of Sandhaven on the afternoon of Monday, 28 February. Quantities of heroin and ‘crack’ cocaine were recovered, as well as a five-figure sum of cash.
The two men, aged 20 and 24, from the Liverpool area, are expected to appear at Aberdeen Sheriff Court on Tuesday, 1 March.
Detective Sergeant John Pirie, from Fraserburgh CID, said: "This has been the culmination of a large-scale enquiry into organised crime in the Buchan Corner and we’d like to thank the community for their continued support.
“The supply of controlled drugs in the North East remains a police priority and we will take all steps to detect those involved in this type of criminality, in order to bring offenders to justice and to reduce the availability of illicit drugs in our local communities."
