Detectives in the North East can confirm that a five-figure sum of Class A drugs has been seized following a proactive operation in Aberdeen.

On Thursday, 5 May, 2022, officers executed warrants at two properties on Headland Court and St Machar Court.

Quantities of heroin and crack cocaine were recovered, with a combined estimated street value of around £20,200.

Three men, aged 21, 27 and 29, have been arrested and charged in connection with drug offences and are due to appear at Aberdeen Sheriff Court today (Friday, 6 May, 2022).
