Two people have been arrested following a police drug raid at a property in Crumlin.

The pair, a 32-year-old man and a 40-year-old woman, were arrested on suspicion of possession of class A drugs with intent to supply, as well as possession of criminal property.

The raid happened on the morning of Friday August 23.

DC Jasmin Power, of Gwent Police, said: “Two people remain in police custody after detectives, and officers from our Caerphilly central neighbourhood policing team, carried out a warrant at a residential property this morning.

“During our search, we seized a quantity of class-A drugs, cash, weighing scales, and mobile phones.”

DC Power added: “Serious and organised crime is a threat to our communities, and we will continue to work tirelessly to crack down on the supply of illegal drugs in our towns.”

Anyone with concerns about drugs in their area can contact Gwent Police on 101, or through direct message on social media.
