Police have carried out yet another cannabis raid in Caerphilly County Borough- this time in Abertridwr.

A property on Hillside Avenue was raided by Gwent Police officers at around 10.55am on Monday, September 5.

During a search of the property, a quantity of class B drugs, believed to be a cultivation of cannabis, was seized by officers.
